Udon Noodle Soup With Spring Greens Spring Onions And Wild Mus Recipes

Steps:

• Heat vegetable oil in wok. Add onion, ginger, and garlic, cooking until onion is soft. Add mushrooms, mirin, and soy sauce. Cook until mushrooms are softened (approximately 5 minutes).
• Add spinach, sesame oil, vegetable broth and chicken broth. Simmer and cook until spinach wilts (approximately 3-5 minutes).
• Add noodles and cook until noodles are heated and tender (do not overcook or they will become mushy).
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a non-stick frying pan or wok over a high heat. Add the onion and fry for 5 mins. Stir in the mangetout, corn, pak choi and spring onions and cook for 5 mins more. Add the garlic, curry powder and soy sauce, and cook for another minute.
• Add the udon noodles along with the ginger and reserved brine, and stir in 2-3 tbsp hot water until the noodles are heated through. Divide between bowls and serve.

Steps:

• Drain and pat the tofu dry with kitchen paper. Cut into cubes, wrap in more kitchen paper, and place a heavy board over the top. Leave to drain for 15 mins.
• Mix the cornflour, chilli flakes and ground peppercorns together in a bowl with a pinch of salt, then add the drained tofu. Toss well to coat.
• Heat half the vegetable oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a high heat, and fry the tofu pieces for 5-6 mins until golden all over. Scoop out of the pan, and leave to drain on kitchen paper.
• Add the remaining oil to the pan and stir-fry the spring onions and beans for 3-4 mins until tender and lightly golden. Pour a kettle of boiling water over the noodles in a sieve to loosen. Drain well, then tip into the pan. Fry for a few minutes until piping hot. Add the sesame oil and sesame seeds, and sizzle for a few seconds. Splash in the soy sauce, rice vinegar, then add the tofu. Toss well, then serve in bowls with a pinch of sesame seeds on top and more soy sauce on the side.

Steps:

• Wrap tofu in paper towels and place heavy books on top for 30 minutes to dry out tofu.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
• Chop pressed tofu into 1-inch cubes and place on the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Turn tofu and bake an additional 10 minutes until crispy.
• While tofu bakes, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook udon in boiling water according to package directions, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender yet firm to the bite, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain.
• Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat. Cook serrano pepper and ginger until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add vegetable broth, carrots, green onions, bok choy, shiitake mushrooms, sesame oil, soy sauce, and baked tofu. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add cooked udon noodles and simmer 5 more minutes.
