Peanut Sauce and Noodles with Tofu and Broccoli & Kale!

THAI PEANUT SAUCE AND TOFU NOODLES

AMAZING!

My take on mouth watering Peanut Sauce and Noodles with Tofu and Broccoli & Kale!

 

 

 

FOR THE SAUCE:



 

3 Tbl Peanut Butter

1 1/2 Tbl Tamari

1 Tbl Mirin (Japanese Rice Wine Vinegar)

2 Garlic Cloves, pressed

1 Tbl Grated Ginger

1/2 tsp Agave Syrup (You can also use Honey but then it is not Vegan)

Juice of 1/2 of one Lime

1/2 tsp Sriracha Sauce

1/4 Cup Water to thin. (If you want a thinner sauce you can add more water)

1 Tbl Sesame Oil

 

Add all ingredients to small bowl, Whisk and set

aside.

 

 

 

 

FOR THE NODDLES, TOFU AND VEGGIES

 

1 Tbl Olive Oil

1 1/2 Tbl Coconut Oil (You can use Olive Oil)

2-3 Tbl Gluten Free Corn Starch

12 oz Gluten Free Rice Noodles

1/2 lb Organic Tofu, cut into small bite sized chunks

1/2-1 Cup Peas

1 Cup Organic Broccoli Florets, cut into small pieces

3 Organic Scallions, chopped small

1/2 bunch Organic Kale, taken off of ribs and torn into small pieces

1/4 Cup chopped Organic Cilantro

Hand full of torn Organic Basil

Chopped Peanuts for the topping

 

Take your Tofu add to a bowl.  Cover with the Corn Starch and mix to coat well.  Set aside and prep your other ingredients.

 

Fill a large pot with water and add 1 Tbl Olive Oil.  Bring the pot of water to a boil and cook your Rice Noodles until done. Check your Noodles frequently as Rice Noodles cook a lot faster than regular Noodles.  When they are finsihed, strain and set aside.

 

Heat your Wok or Deep Dish Fry Pan until very hot, add 1Tbl Coconit Oil and let it get hot.  Add the Tofu mixture to the oil and stir fry mixing often so thatthe Tofu browns a bit but does not burn.  Once cooked, take from Wok and put back into your bowl. 

 

Add the 1/2 Tbl Coconut Oil to the pan and let it get hot.  Add the Peas and Broccoli to the Pan and stir fry until bright green and crisp. Add Scallions and cook for 30 seconds.  Add the Kale and cook for 30 seconds and then add the Cilantro and the Basil, turn off heat and stir until just wilted.  Add the Tofu back to the pan and then add the Noodles and toss until well combined and really "mixed well".  Add the sauce to the pan and mix well!!  Make sure that the sauce is mixed well and coats everything.

 

Serve in bowls topped with the Peanuts.  You can also add a aqueeze of Lime to the top if you would like.
