Steps:
- Cook the noodles in boiling salted water for about 5 minutes, until cooked through but still firm. Drain well and place in a large bowl.
- Toss the Spicy Peanut Sauce with the noodles and garnish with the scallion and cilantro.
- Place all the ingredients (reserving 2 tablespoons cilantro and 2 tablespoons sliced scallions) except the peanut oil and salt in a blender or the bowl of a food processor and puree. Stop the motor and use a spoon or spatula to lift and incorporate the bottom of the mixture. With the motor running, slowly pour in the peanut oil. The sauce should be thick and creamy, like honey. Add a little water if it is too thick. The final sauce should be about the consistency of thin mayonnaise. Taste, and adjust seasoning for spiciness or salt.
- For a bit more texture, add some chopped peanuts to the finished sauce.

Steps:
- In large frying pan melt margarine. Coarsely crush the ramen noodles in the package before opening. (Save the flavor packets).
- Add the crushed noodles to the melted butter. Add the peanuts and sprinkle the salt and stir until lightly to dark brown.
- Do not burn. Set aside.
- Throw the shredded cabbage and spinach in large serving plates or bowl. Add radishes and celery. Lightly toss.
- In blender add milk, vinegar, oil, brown sugar, soy sauce, seasoning packets and horseradish sauce if desired. Pulse a few times.
- Spoon the peanut and noodles on the spinach/cabbage mixture and mix or leave on the top.
- Drizzle or spoon the dressing on top.
- Note: I wash all my fresh veges with ice cold water and a dab of bleach. Let them set for a few minutes. Drain the water, rinse the veges and put loose ones in a salad spinner. I have done this since 1963 when we were in another country and I have never stopped. It is safe.
