Peanut-Ginger Pasta

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

Cook the pasta according to package instructions, adding the broccoli florets during the last five minutes. Once cooked, 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 it and mix thoroughly to ensure everything is well coated.
