Thai Spicy Noodles with Thai Basil and Peanuts

We all love to eat spicy food so Korean, Thai, Mexican are our all time favorite. Like that Thai food is one of my favorite cuisine too. I love to eat and make Thai dishes at home. This one is very easy and quick to make it.

Just make sure if you are buying Basil for Thai dish it has to be Thai Basil. Italian Basil is not good for this dish. Both Basil are different in shape and taste and used in totally different cuisine. Ok so lets cooking.

Ingredients:
half box angel hair spaghetti / rice noodles (i used whole wheat spaghetti)
Oil 2 tbsp
10 -12 long sliced ginger
2-3 Thai chilies ( I like spicy so take 3, you can adjust as per your taste)
6-7 florets of broccoli
1 block of Extra Firm tofu (long sliced and shallow fry in oil until it become crispy)
1 carrot - match stick slices
1/4 cup thinly sliced cabbage
1 onion- match stick slices
1 green capsicum - match stick slices
10-12 leaves of Thai basil
2 tbsp peanut butter
1 tsp soya sauce
1/2 tsp vinegar
1/3 tsp sugar
2 tsp hot chili sauce like sriracha
hand full of sprouts for decoration

Method :
Mix in one cup Peanut butter, soya sauce, vinegar, sugar, hot sauce and keep it aside.
Boil the noodles as per box and keep it aside.
Heat 1 tsp oil in non stick wok. Make sure oil is hot, add chilies, ginger. Let them cook for 30 seconds  until aroma comes.
Add all the vegetable, quickly saute them and add the liquid sauce mix.
Mix it with veges and add noodles in it. Add Thai basil in it.
Again mix everything and taste it and season as per your taste.
In a serving bowl take everything and top it with Thai basil, peanuts, sprouts.
