  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 200 grams Asian noodles (udon or ramen)
  • 4 cloves fresh garlic (minced)
  • 60 ml soy sauce (low-sodium recommended)
  • 15 ml rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Korean chilli powder (or red pepper flakes as substitute)
  • 120 ml vegetable broth (for cooking)
  • 100 grams tofu (cubed)
  • 100 grams vegetables (bell peppers or snap peas) (optional toppings)

Instructions

  1. Cook the noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a large pan, heat a little oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  3. Stir in the soy sauce, rice vinegar, and Korean chilli powder. Mix well.
  4. Add the cubed tofu and vegetable broth to the pan. Cook for about 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to blend.
  5. Toss in the cooked noodles and mix well until they are fully coated in the sauce. If using, add your choice of vegetables at this point.
  6. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through.
  7. Remove from heat and serve warm.

Notes

Garnish with extra chilli powder or fresh herbs like cilantro for added flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 2-3 days. Reheat with a splash of water to prevent sticking.
