Supersonic Noodles
Serves 4-6 | 10-15 minutes
So called because of the speed of this dish! Wholewheat noodles are good and easily available – but if you can’t find them, try soba (buckwheat) or other non-wheat varieties for a change.
- 500g/18oz noodles
- 2 tsp rapeseed or other mild-flavoured oil
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1-2cm/½-¾ inch cube fresh ginger
- Pack of Cauldron Marinated Tofu pieces OR a pack of smoked tofu, cubed
- Shoyu (soya sauce) to taste
- 40g/1½oz mixed seeds (eg sunflower/pumpkin/sesame)
- ½ green chilli, deseeded and finely chopped OR pinch dried chilli powder - optional
- 450g/1lb carrots, grated large
- Bunch parsley, chopped fine
- Squeeze of lime juice
- Boil kettle.
- Put noodles into a pan and pour enough boiled water over them to cover well.
- Boil according to packet instructions. Rice noodles take only 2-3 minutes, whereas wholemeal or soba will take longer. Time the rest of the recipe accordingly. When ready, drain. During this time, peel and crush garlic and peel and grate ginger. Put them in oil and fry very gently (almost just warming) in a frying pan.
- Add tofu pieces.
- Add shoyu and mixed seeds.
- If using, add a little fresh chopped chilli or a pinch of chilli powder.
- Stir in noodles, season with salt and pepper then add grated carrots and chopped parsley.
- Drizzle the lime juice over everything, toss and serve immediately.
