Spicy Peanut Noodles with Mixed Vegetables

1. Cook the Noodles

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
2. Add the noodles and cook according to the package instructions until al dente.
3. Drain thoroughly and set aside.

2. Make the Spicy Peanut Sauce

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, chili flakes (or chili paste), sugar, and warm water until completely smooth and emulsified. Adjust chili to your preferred heat level.

3. Sauté the Vegetables

1. Heat the neutral oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
2. Add the mixed stir-fry vegetables and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, tossing frequently, until they are tender-crisp.

4. Combine and Serve

1. Lower the heat to medium-low, then add the drained noodles and the prepared peanut sauce into the skillet with the vegetables.
2. Toss vigorously for 1 to 2 minutes so the sauce warms through and evenly coats every strand of noodles and vegetable.
3. Divide between serving bowls and serve immediately.
