Customer reviews
Review summary
Updated on Aug 2026- Flavour: The peanut-sesame sauce is a standout, with hoisin and oyster sauce creating a rich, layered flavour; some reviewers found the overall dish too salty or too heavy on peanut butter.
- Ease of prep: Most reviewers found this dish quick and straightforward to pull together on a weeknight.
- Suggestions: Use less sauce if saltiness is a concern, or opt for low-sodium soy sauce and season to taste. Some reviewers recommend swapping black sesame seeds for chopped toasted peanuts to reinforce the peanut flavour, and adding extra vegetables to improve the balance of noodles to filling.
- Leftovers: This recipe makes generous portions and holds up well as leftovers; some reviewers were able to portion it into multiple meals.
