Otherwise, I'll be in trouble! ;-)<BR/><BR/>Amanda, peanut butter is a great idea. An easy addition that gives the dish a different flavour.<BR/><BR/>Truffle, I ate half of it and saved half for lunch the next day and suprisingly, it didn't get too soggy and the flavours were terrific.<BR/><BR/>Arantxa - Thanks, it was yummy. <BR/><BR/>Tigerfish - Braising is such an easy technique and it has a lovely flavour, esp. if you like a bit of moisture in your noodle dish.<BR/><BR/>Valentina - I use ginger a lot in my Asian stir-fries. And recently, I learnt to put some ginger in pumpkin soup and it was yummy!<BR/><BR/>Wok & Spoon - I have no problems eating stir-fried noodles at restaurants but I just can't bear to use that much oil in my own cooking. So braising noodles is the next best thing for me.<BR/><BR/>Susan, you are making me want to cook these noodles again. This time with some crushed peanuts!Nora B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04360757422555317095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6398592642206432605.post-51340067809538209782007-07-31T08:53:00.000+10:002007-07-31T08:53:00.000+10:00I share your affinity for toasted nuts, especially...I share your affinity for toasted nuts, especially peanuts--can't get enough of 'em!

I would love to see some of your stir-fried noodle recipes, maybe with a vietnamese twist?<BR/><BR/>Toni, I am hooked on sesame at the moment, including tahini.<BR/><BR/>Eva, you'll have to come to a stir-fried cooking class at my place soon ;-) I found that I can get away with just having these sauces: regular or light soy sauce, Chinese oysyter or mushroom sauce, sesame oil, Thai fish sauce, sweet soy sauce. Chinese cooking wine is also a good thing to have, but I don't use it.<BR/><BR/>Ruth, I'm glad that i was able to contribute something this week.<BR/><BR/>Katie, I'm nuts about nuts too! :-)<BR/><BR/>Rose, soy sauce and ginger is a terrific combination. I never get bored of it. Have a good weekend too!<BR/><BR/>Wendy, me too. With stir-fries, I always take the recipes as a guide. <BR/><BR/>Lydia, I never get tired of noodles. Using fresh young ginger (older ginger can taste bitter) in cooking is really addictive.Nora B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04360757422555317095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6398592642206432605.post-30522110193283123222007-07-21T21:45:00.000+10:002007-07-21T21:45:00.000+10:00I could eat noodles every day!
