Begin by cooking your favourite noodles according to the packaging. After cooking, drain the noodles but make sure to reserve some of the hot noodle water.

Add the remaining ingredients (except for the green onion, roasted peanuts, and chilli flakes) into a bowl. To incorporate the ingredients, mix in the reserved hot noodle water.

Finally, toss in the cooked noodles and the remaining garnishes.
