Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams dry rice noodles
- 300 grams extra-firm tofu
- 4 stalks scallions (green onions)
- 50 grams unsalted peanuts
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 3 cloves garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger
- 0.5 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
- 100 milliliters water
Instructions
Cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut it into bite-sized cubes.
Finely chop the scallions, separating the white and green parts. Mince the garlic and grate the ginger.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the tofu cubes and pan-fry until golden and crispy on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove the tofu from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the white parts of the scallions, garlic, ginger, and red chili flakes. Stir-fry for about 1 minute until fragrant.
In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, lime juice, brown sugar, and water. Stir to combine.
Add the cooked noodles to the skillet, followed by the sauce mixture. Toss well to coat the noodles evenly.
Gently fold in the tofu and cook for 2-3 minutes until heated through.
Top the dish with green parts of the scallions and crushed peanuts. Serve hot and enjoy!
