INGREDIENTS
2 oz Rice Noodles (dry)
200 g Firm Tofu (Extra-firm)
50 g Shelled Edamame
1/2 medium Red Bell Pepper
1 cup Broccoli Florets
1 small Carrot
1 tsp Sesame Oil
1 tbsp Low Sodium Soy Sauce
1 tsp Fresh Ginger Paste
1 tsp Minced Garlic
1 tsp Maple Syrup
1 tsp Sesame Seeds
PREPARATION
Prepare the rice noodles according to package directions, usually by soaking or boiling until tender, then drain and set aside.
Press the tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut the tofu into bite-sized cubes. Pat dry if necessary to help with crisping.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add a small amount of oil and fry the tofu cubes until all sides are golden and crispy. Remove from pan and set aside.
In the same pan, lightly sauté the red bell pepper slices, broccoli florets, and carrot rounds for 3-4 minutes until slightly tender but still crisp.
In a small bowl, whisk together sesame oil, low sodium soy sauce, ginger paste, minced garlic, and maple syrup to create the sesame ginger sauce.
Combine the cooked rice noodles, sautéed vegetables, crispy tofu, and shelled edamame in a large bowl.
Drizzle the sesame ginger sauce over the bowl and toss gently to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated.
Garnish with a sprinkle of sesame seeds before serving.
