Mapo Tofu with Garlic Noodles
Crumbled tofu and high-fiber edamame noodles simmered in a spicy, numbing Szechuan garlic sauce for a meal that is deeply savory.
INGREDIENTS
1.5 oz Edamame noodles
6 oz Extra firm tofu
0.5 cup Shiitake mushrooms
0 tsp Toasted sesame oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Fresh ginger
1 tbsp Tamari
1 tbsp Chili garlic sauce
0.25 tsp Szechuan peppercorns
1 stalk Green onion
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the edamame noodles for 4-5 minutes until tender, then drain and set aside.
Crumble half of the extra firm tofu into small pieces to mimic ground meat and cut the remaining half into 1-inch cubes.
Finely chop the shiitake mushrooms and mince the garlic and ginger to prepare the aromatic base.
Heat the toasted sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the crumbled tofu and mushrooms until they are slightly browned.
Add the minced garlic, ginger, and crushed Szechuan peppercorns to the skillet, stirring for 1 minute until the aroma is fragrant.
Pour in the tamari and chili garlic sauce with a splash of water, stirring to create a silky and spicy sauce.
Gently fold the cubed tofu and cooked edamame noodles into the sauce, simmering for 2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Season the dish with sea salt and black pepper, then garnish with thinly sliced green onions before serving warm.
