How to do it
Get water started boiling for noodles, and add spaghetti when appropriate.
While that's heating up/cooking, chop peanuts, and cook them in dry skillet for a bit until they've browned. Remove. Chop garlic fine-ish. Fry in peanut oil with ya cai, stirring constantly, for 30 seconds - 1 minute (you want the garlic to be just about to brown). Remove. Chop scallions.
