I've been leaning towards Asian cuisine. And recently, I've been playing around with chow mein noodles and I learned to whip up this delicious tofu stir fry noodles. It's such a filling and delicious meal you can cook in minutes.
1blockfirm tofusliced into 1/2-inch slices and patted dry
1handful snow peas
1teaspoonground cumin
1teaspoonground coriander
1tablespoonsambal oelek
1tablespoonsoy sauce
2mediumlemons for serving
Instructions
Heat half an inch of oil in a wok or other large sauté pan. Fry the shallots until golden brown. Remove and drain on a paper towel.
Meanwhile, boil a medium pot of water. Add the prepared chow mein noodles and cook according to package instructions, stopping a bit shy of completely done. Drain and rinse with cool water.
Drain all but two tablespoons oil from the pan. Saute onion until translucent, then add garlic and jalapeno. Cook until softened but not brown. Add tofu and allow to cook for a few minutes to slightly brown the tofu. Add the snow peas and noodles, stirring gently until the beans are softened, about 1 to 2 minutes. Try not to break up the tofu.
Stir in remaining spices, sambal oelek, and soy sauce. Serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges, fried shallots, and additional sambal oelek.
