Steps:

• In a large pot, bring plenty of salted water to a boil. While water is coming to a boil, work on the sauce. Place all sauce ingredients (peanut butter through red chili flakes) in a bowl. Add 3 tablespoons of water, and whisk everything together till a sauce forms. Set aside. When the water boils, add the broccoli florets and continue boiling till the broccoli is bright green and crisp-tender, about 1 minute. Using a slotted spoon, remove the broccoli from the water and place in a wok. Bring the same water back to a boil. Then add pasta to the water and cook according to package instructions. Make sure you don't over cook the pasta. Drain well. Add the drained pasta to the wok with broccoli. Pour the peanut sauce all over the pasta and toss well. Taste the pasta, if it needs more salt, add soy sauce half a tablespoon at a time, tossing and tasting as you go. Garnish with chopped green onions, cilantro or parsley. Serve warm or cold.
