This simple, slightly spicy noodle dish is infinitely adaptable to whatever combination of vegetables you have on hand. Tahini, a paste made from toasted sesame seeds, is available in specialty foods stores and Middle Eastern markets. Use natural peanut butter without added sweeteners. If the oil has separated from the peanut butter, stir it in before measuring.
