In a big nonstick skillet, warm up the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sweet potato spirals and cook for five minutes, or until just softened. To create steam in the pan and further soften, add 1 tablespoon of water. Cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes to achieve the desired tenderness. Step 2.
Microwave the peanut butter in a small bowl for 30 seconds, or until it is melted and smooth. With a whisk, combine the remaining ingredients (2 teaspoons water through lime juice). Pour sauce into pan and toss noodles to coat. Transfer to a bowl and add toppings of choice.

Cut your sweet potato noodles properly as the first step in making sure they turn out well. The best way to accomplish that is, of course, with a spiralizer.
It is simple and easy to turn a sweet potato into long, curly noodles once you have a spiralizer.
