Instructions

1) • Boil the kettle. • Cut broccoli into small florets. Thinly slice carrot into half-moons. Zest lime to get a generous pinch, then cut into wedges. • Cut Malaysian tofu into 1cm cubes. In a large frying pan, heat a generous drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat. Cook tofu, turning occasionally, until browned all over, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.

2) • Half-fill a medium saucepan with the boiling water. Add udon noodles and cook over a medium-high heat until tender, 3-4 minutes. In last minute of cook time, gently stir noodles with a fork to separate. Drain, rinse and set aside. • Meanwhile, return frying pan to a high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Stir-fry the broccoli and carrot with a good splash of water until tender and slightly charred, 6-8 minutes.

3) • Reduce heat to medium-high. Add a drizzle of olive oil, then the ginger lemongrass paste, garlic paste and Southeast Asian spice blend. Cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Stir in the coconut milk, soy sauce, water, lime zest, brown sugar and a good squeeze of lime juice. Simmer until slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. • Remove from heat, then add the noodles, tossing to coat.

 

4)• Divide coconut noodles between bowls. • Top with Malaysian tofu. Sprinkle with the roasted peanuts. • Serve with any remaining lime wedges.
