Tofu Chow Mein- serves 4-5
Ingredients:
Marinade
450g Extra Firm Plain Tofu
1/2 Tbsp grated ginger
1 Tbsp sesame oil
1 Tbsp garlic paste
1/2 tsp black garlic sugar (or dark muscavado)
2 Tbsp soy sauce
400g bag of ready-to-use stir fry vegetables
250-300g medium egg noodles
sesame oil

Method:
-
Preheat oven to 190°C
-
Wrap tofu block in a clean tea towel and place a very heavy object on top. Do this for the time it takes for your oven to heat up
-
Meanwhile whisk all marinade ingredients together in a bowl
-
When oven is ready, unwrap tofu and pat dry with a piece of kitchen towel. Cut into large cubes and put into the marinade, ensuring all tofu is completely covered.
-
Place on a non-stick baking sheet for around 20 mins until golden brown.
-
Whilst that is cooking, prepare the noodles as per instructions on the packet and drain when ready.
-
Once the tofu is ready and out of the oven, in a large pan, add a little oil and the bag of vegetables. Stir fry for around 5-8 mins. When they are nearly ready, add sesame oil and soy sauce to taste.
-
Add in the cooked noodles and tofu and mix carefully as you don't want to break up the tofu.
-
Serve in bowls.
