Noodles With Tofu Recipes

Steps:

• Put the noodles in a large bowl, cover with hot water and soak until just softened, about 4 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water; set aside.
• Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add the tofu in a single layer and cook, undisturbed, until golden on the bottom, about 4 minutes. Toss gently with a spatula and cook, tossing occasionally, until golden all over, about 4 more minutes; season with salt. Add 1 more tablespoon vegetable oil, the scallions, celery and bell pepper and cook, stirring, until the vegetables are crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon curry powder and season with salt; stir until the vegetables are coated and the curry powder is lightly toasted, about 1 minute. Transfer the tofu and vegetables to a bowl.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and 1 tablespoon curry powder to the skillet. Add the drained noodles and cook, tossing, until they turn yellow, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tofu mixture, soy sauce and chicken broth and cook, tossing, until most of the liquid evaporates, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the lime juice and season with salt. Top each serving with the bean sprouts and serve with lime wedges.

Steps:

• Combine water, liquid soy seasoning, arrowroot, ginger, and garlic in a jar. Set glaze aside.
• Line a plate with paper towels, set tofu on top, and add another layer of paper towels. Place a cutting board on top of the tofu and set a heavy pot on the board. Let sit for 30 minutes, replacing the paper towels as needed, to press as much liquid as possible from the tofu.
• Place rice noodles into a large bowl, cover with cold water, and soak. Cut pressed tofu into 1/2-inch pieces.
• Heat oil in a wok over high heat. Add tofu and stir-fry until all sides are golden, about 5 minutes. Add all mushrooms and cook for 2 minutes. Mix in bell pepper and onion, and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Pour glaze on top and cook until sauce has thickened, about 2 minutes.
• Remove rice noodles from water, shake off excess liquid, and add to the wok. Stir-fry until heated thorough, about 3 minutes.

Steps:

• Put the noodles in a bowl and pour over boiling water to cover. Leave for 4 mins, then drain and rinse under running cold water until cold. Drain well, then snip into short lengths with scissors.
• Rinse the tofu in cold water, then cut into small chunks. Pat dry with kitchen paper. Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a wok or large frying pan, add the tofu, then stir-fry for 2-3 mins, stirring until lightly browned. Drain on kitchen paper.
• Add the remaining oil to the wok and heat up. Add the spring onions, ginger, pepper and mangetout, then stir-fry for 1 min. Add the noodles and beansprouts, then stir to mix. Blend together the curry paste, soy, chilli sauce and 1 tbsp water, then add to the wok, stirring until everything is well coated in the sauce. Serve sprinkled with coriander, with lime wedges for squeezing over.

Steps:

• Prepare the noodles: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook according to package instructions until the noodles are just tender, about 6 minutes. Drain, rinse with cold water and drain well again.
• As noodles cook, prepare the topping: Add vinegar, soy sauce, chile oil, scallion, ginger and 1 tablespoon water to a small bowl and stir to combine.
• Place the tofu, garlic, sugar, five-spice and 3/4 teaspoon salt into a blender or food processor and blend, adding about 6 tablespoons of water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the sauce is completely smooth and creamy. (You may need up to 12 tablespoons of water, depending on your tofu.)
• Place the noodles in a large bowl and pour the tofu sauce on top. Add the cilantro and sesame oil, and toss until coated.
• To serve, divide the noodles among bowls. Top with the spicy soy-vinegar sauce, sesame seeds and cilantro sprigs.

Steps:

• Cook the noodles: boil 5 cups water with the salt and add the noodles. While they are boiling, separate them, with a large fork so that they cook evenly and don't stick together. Let them boil for 3 minutes, then transfer them to a colander and put them under cold running water until they are cool. Leave them in the colander to drain completely.
• Heat half the oil in a wok and stir-fry the shallots, garlic, and ginger for 2 minutes. Add the soy sauce and tomatoes, and stir for 30 seconds.
• Add the cold noodles and keep turning and tossing them around until they are hot again. Remove the wok from the heat and cover it, so that the noodles stay warm.
• In another wok or frying pan, heat the remaining oil and add the chopped chilies and yellow bean sauce. Stir for 2 minutes. Raise the heat and add the lightly beaten eggs and scallions. With a wooden spoon, vigorously stir the mixture until the eggs are scrambled.
• Transfer the tofu mixture to the wok with the noodles. Heat together over a low heat, stirring and mixing so that everything is evenly hot. Serve at once.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 450 degrees and place one rack on the top and one on the bottom. Fill a kettle or medium pot with water (about 8 cups) and bring to a boil. Place the noodles in a heat-proof bowl and cover with boiling water. Soak for 5 minutes, then drain. Set aside the bowl to use in Step 5.
• Make the marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk to combine the hoisin sauce, sesame oil, maple syrup, garlic and sesame seeds.
• Place the noodles on a sheet pan. Add the sesame oil, 1 tablespoon of neutral oil, soy sauce, and 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt. Toss to combine, then spread the noodles out evenly.
• Dip each tofu slice into the marinade, coating both sides, then add them to the sheet pan, pushing the noodles aside so that the tofu touches the pan and doesn't just sit on top of the noodles. Place on the bottom rack of the oven and bake for 15 minutes. Reserve excess marinade.
• Place the baby bok choy into the reserved bowl, then add the remaining 1 tablespoon of neutral oil and 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt, and toss to coat.
• Remove the sheet pan from the oven (the noodles should be crisp on the bottom and around the edges) and add the bok choy to the pan. Return the sheet pan to the top rack of the oven and bake for 4 to 7 minutes until the greens are vibrant with crispy edges, and the top of the noodles are crispy. Drizzle with the remaining marinade, top with cilantro leaves and serve.

Steps:

• Cook noodles in boiling water 6 minutes; drain. Combine soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, oil, and crushed red pepper, stirring well with a whisk.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add bell pepper strips; sauté 2 minutes.
• Add bok choy; sauté 1 minute. Add tofu and garlic; sauté 2 minutes.
• Add noodles and soy sauce mixture; cook 2 minutes or until thoroughly heated, tossing well to coat. Sprinkle with green onions and cilantro.

Steps:

• Cut the tofu into 12 pieces and mix with 1 tbsp of soy sauce and 1 tsp of sesame oil. Heat the remaining oil in a wok, then stir-fry the vegetables, garlic and ginger for 2 mins until the vegetables are starting to wilt. Drizzle with 2 tbsp water, then stir-fry for another min.
• Add the noodles, sesame seeds and soy sauce from the marinated tofu, then stir-fry for 2 mins. Now add the tofu, splash over the remaining soy sauce, then cover with a lid or baking sheet. Leave for 1 min so that the tofu heats through, then gently mix into the rest of the stir-fry.
• Lift the noodles and tofu into bowls and splash over a little more soy sauce and sesame oil to serve, if you like.
