Instructions
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the spaghetti and cook according to package directions. Drain and rinse with cold water. Toss with the sesame oil to prevent the noodles from sticking. Set aside.
- While the spaghetti is cooking, heat the safflower oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the ginger, garlic and chili paste and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the peanut butter, soy sauce, vinegar, sugar and water and stir to combine. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the sugar has dissolved and the sauce is smooth.
- Pour the sauce over the spaghetti and toss to combine. Garnish with sesame seeds and scallions. The noodles can be served warm or cold.
