This is one of my favourite recipes to cook when I want something quick, easy, furious but without having to think too much! Soba noodles have such a great nutty flavour, and you can customise what vegetables or protein you use.
Below are some of my hints and tips for making it your own!
- Customize the bowl with additional toppings like sliced radishes, cilantro, or lime wedges.
- Adjust the peanut sauce to your taste by adding more or less honey, soy sauce, or other ingredients.
- Make extra crispy chickpeas for snacking or save them for later use in salads or bowls.
- If you prefer a spicy kick, add a dash of sriracha or red pepper flakes to the peanut sauce.
