There's a term for this type of recipe: assimilation foods. It's a recipe adapted to ingredients found in local grocery stores.
Recipe adapted from Luke Tsai, on Taste.
Ingredients
Noodles - whatever you have, from spaghetti to Chinese egg noodles
Toppings:
Cucumber, julienned or grated
Carrot, julienned or grated
Egg - quickly cooked into a crepe and julienned
Cooked ham, julienned
(Options: shredded cooked chicken or turkey, bell pepper, bean sprouts, water chestnut, jicama, snow peas, shredded cabbage, fresh parsley or cilantro, etc.)
Sauce (for 2-4 servings)
1/4 cup peanut butter (Luke says smooth only but I used chunky and it was fine. Tahini would be even more authentic to the original if you have it.)
3 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp Chinese black vinegar
1/2 tbsp sesame oil
pinch of sugar
hot water to thin
