Discription:Here is yet another fantastic Chinese pasta dish- Sesame noodles. you can serve this as a side dish as it calls for no meat at all, although you could add cooked chicken if you wanted. This recipe is very simple and the only work is preparing the sauce and cooking the noodles. You can use a variety of different pastas, spaghetti, linguini, vermicelli, ect. If you enjoy cooking Asian dishes chances are you already have quite a few of these ingredients on hand already.
