Stir-fried Noodles With Vegetables And Tofu Recipe

Preparation of Ingredients

Begin by preparing all your ingredients: soak the rice noodles in warm water until soft; press and cut the tofu into small cubes; wash and slice all the vegetables (bell peppers, green beans, carrots, baby corn) and mushrooms; finely chop the garlic and ginger.

Cooking the Noodles

In a large pot, boil the rice noodles according to the package instructions until just tender. Drain the noodles and set aside. Be careful not to overcook, as they will be stir-fried later on.

Stir-frying the Ingredients

Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and ginger and stir-fry for about 1 minute, or until fragrant. Increase the heat to high, add the tofu cubes, and stir-fry until they are golden brown on all sides. Next, add the mixed vegetables and mushrooms, and continue to stir-fry for 5-7 minutes, until the vegetables are crisp-tender. Then, add the cooked noodles, soy sauce, and any optional seasonings to the pan. Toss everything together for another 2-3 minutes, ensuring the noodles, tofu, and vegetables are well coated in the sauce and evenly heated through.

Serving

Serve the stir-fried noodles with vegetables and tofu hot, garnished with a sprinkle of sesame seeds or fresh herbs if desired. Enjoy a wholesome and flavorsome meal that is both nourishing and satisfying.
