I found this recipe a while back, on my first visit to the beautiful vegetarian Indian food blog, Saffron Trail. And despite never having tasted it, I got a real craving for it a couple of days ago!

It’s basically a noodle dish with a nice bit of steamed veg… and a gorgeous orangey, gingery, peanut butter dressing! Yum. I mixed the dressing up, and I could have probably eaten the lot of it with a spoon! (Peanut butter soup!!) I think this dressing would go amazingly well as a dipping sauce for chicken too.

While the original recipe calls for smooth peanut butter, I only had crunchy at home. While I probably will try it with smooth when I get a chance, I really liked the extra texture that the crunchy peanut butter added.

This is a great dish, quick and relatively healthy. I made up a batch in the evening and had it for dinner, then took the leftovers to work the next day. You must do this<…

When Sig announced that she was hosting Meeta’s Monthly Mingle this month and the theme was “Grill It”, I took it up as a challenge of sorts.
Why?
Because my oven has a grill and I hardly ever use it. I make my grilled sandwiches in the sandwich press. The first step to the challenge was finding a recipe. I wasn’t to keen on grilling vegetables this time only because I wanted to make something “different”.

I finally found what I wanted at Matt Bitman’s blog. His <a href=”http://bitten.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/08/04/recipe-of-the-day-skewered-grilled-fruit-with-ginger-syrup/…
