This easy Asian inspired soy sauce peanut noodle recipe base is angle hair pasta (could also use thin rice noodles) with a bit of garlic, sugar, soy sauce, and oyster sauce. Tossed with a load of roasted salted peanuts.
Top off tamari garlic noodles with some roasted peanuts and brighten it up in taste and look with fresh sliced green onions.
Want to make this a vegan / vegetarian dish? Change the oyster sauce to hoisin sauce or look for a mushroom based oyster sauce.
Don't do soy sauce? Cool, try coconut aminos as a substitution. Coconut aminos is a soy sauce substitution that is gluten free, soy free, and has less salt.
"Dicing" nuts is difficult. Place them in a ziploc bag and close the bag 95% of the way, squeezing out the air. Take a big cooking spoon and pound the bag gently but firmly. This will break up the nuts into pieces without making a mess.
Like spicy noodles? Add some sriracha or red chili flakes.
Serving Suggestion
