Peanut sauce is delicious. Peanut butter is delicious. One day, while I was a poor, single bachelor, living in a flat on my own, I had the revelation that peanut butter that is just made from peanuts - you know, the kind that separates - is basically 90% of the way to a peanut sauce.

So I took a scoop of peanut butter and put it on my spaghetti.

It didn’t work very well and it looked awful, but it was actually really tasty. The version I present to you here is slightly more work, but at least it won’t turn your noodles deliciously grey and lumpy.
