Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil.

- To make the sauce, combine the peanut butter, soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, chilli crisp, rice vinegar, peeled garlic cloves and water in the bowl of a food processor or blender and blend until smooth.
- Pour the sauce over the noodles, adding a few more tablespoons of water if necessary and toss to coat. Adjust seasoning to taste.
