1/2 cup packed cilantro leaves
1/2 cup packed mint leaves
1/2 cup packed basil leaves
1/2 cup peanuts
2 cloves garlic
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil v
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon siracha or other hot sauce
Coarsely chopped peanuts for garnish

Directions

Prepare the noodles according to package directions, drain and return to pot.
In the meantime, place the cilantro, mint, basil, peanuts, garlic, sesame oil, soy sauce, and siracha into a food processor until finely chopped.
With the motor running, slowly pour the vegetable oil down the processor chute and then sprinkle in some salt and pepper.
