Ingredients

Ingredients:

  • 2 bundles of Soba Noodles
  • 1 block  of firm Tofu
  • 150g snow peas
  • 2 bunches of broccolini
  • sesame seeds (optional garnish)
  • spring onion (option garnish)
  • coriander (optional garnish)

MARINADE:

  • 1/3 cup Kikkoman Less Salt Soy Sauce
  • 2 tbs rice wine vinegar
  • 3 TBS Sesame Oil
  • 1 TBS Brown Sugar
  • 1 TBS Freshly Grated Ginger
  • 2 Cloves Garlic, Crushed

Method

  1. Mix all marinade ingredients together into a large bowl
  2. Cut 1 block of firm tofu into cubes and place into the marinade mixture and leave for a few hours in the fridge.
  3. Once tofu has marinated, it will take on a brown colour from the soy sauce plus lock in a deep soy sauce flavour. Put the tofu into a fry pan and fry up until golden and crispy.
  4. Cook soba noodles and steam your chosen veg (Erin used snow peas and broccolini)
  5. Place all ingredients into a large saucepan or wok and cover with leftover marinade from the tofu. If the tofu has absorbed most of the marinade, we suggest making a double batch so there’s plenty of marinade left to cover the whole dish when serving.
