Peanut-Ginger Pasta

Put the lime zest and juice, soy sauce, sesame oil, peanut butter, ginger, garlic, a little water, salt, and pepper into a blender. Cover tightly and blend into a smooth sauce.

Cook the pasta according to the package instructions, adding the broccoli florets during the last five minutes. Once done, drain.

Place the pasta and broccoli in a large bowl, then add the carrots, red bell pepper, spring onions, and chopped basil. Pour the peanut-ginger sauce over and toss thoroughly until everything is well coated.
