  1. Cook the noodles according to package directions. Drain and rinse with cold water to prevent sticking.

  2. While the noodles are cooking, prepare the sauce. In a medium bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, sriracha, and minced garlic.

  3. Gradually whisk in the hot water, a tablespoon at a time, until the sauce reaches a smooth, pourable consistency.

  4. In a large serving bowl, combine the cooked noodles, julienned carrot, and cucumber.

  5. Pour the peanut sauce over the noodles and vegetables. Toss everything together until well-coated.

  6. Serve immediately, garnished with sliced green onions and chopped peanuts.
