Step 1

To make the peanut sauce:

Step 2

In a small sauce pan, simmer lemon grass in the water for 5 minutes, strain out the lemongrass and add the remaining ingredients to the water. Whisk well and simmer an additional 5 minutes. If the sauce doesn’t thicken, whisk for one minute over medium heat.

Step 3

Boil a pot of water and add a little bit of salt. Add the pasta and cook until done. Drain and set aside.

Step 4

Steam or blanch the vegetables. In a large bowl, add the pasta and vegetables. Toss. Stir in some peanut sauce. Slowly stir in the sauce and taste. You probably won't need all of it. When making for one, probably only use 2-3 Tablespoons of the sauce.

Step 5

Sprinkle the pasta and veggies with sesame seeds before serving. This dish is good hot or cold. You can use whatever veggies you like.
