Soba noodle and tofu stir-fry
- 1½ tablespoons salt reduced soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- 270g packet soba noodles
- 1½ tablespoons sunflower oil
- 300g firm tofu, cut into 1cm cubes, drained on paper towel
- 400g broccoli, cut into small florets
- 200g Swiss brown mushrooms, thinly sliced
- 1 red capsicum, chopped
- 1 cup frozen baby peas, thawed
- 2 cloves garlic, crushed
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted
- Combine soy sauce, sugar and sesame oil in a small bowl.
- Cook noodles in a large saucepan of boiling water for 3 minutes. Drain. Rinse under cold water. Drain again.
- Heat half the sunflower oil in a large non-stick wok or frying pan over a medium to high heat. Add tofu. Stir-fry 3 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove and set aside.
- Heat remaining sunflower oil in same wok. Add broccoli and mushrooms. Stir-fry 2-3 minutes, or until mushrooms are just tender. Add capsicum, peas and garlic. Stir-fry a further 1 minute.
- Add noodles, tofu and soy sauce mixture. Toss over medium-high heat until well combined and hot. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
SHORTCUT: For a time saver, replace broccoli, mushrooms, capsicum and peas with 2 x 400g packets fresh stir-fry vegetables or an 850g packet frozen stir-fry vegetables.
TIPS: Soba noodles (made from buckwheat) are available from the Asian food section in supermarkets. Replace with dried udon or rice noodles, if preferred.
