Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go
  1. Prep the veggies

    Peel the carrot and cut it into thin slices. Break the broccoli into florets and cut them into small pieces. Thinly slice the 2 garlic cloves.

  2. Cook the noodles

    Bring 500 ml of water to a boil in the saucepan. Drop in the rice noodles for 3 to 4 min until tender but still firm. Drain and set aside.

    Tip · For perfect noodles, don't soak them: drop them straight into the boiling water.
  3. Brown the tofu

    Cut the tofu into 2 cm cubes. In the hot wok with 1 tbsp of olive oil, brown the tofu cubes over high heat for 3 to 4 min, stirring. Salt lightly and set aside.

  4. Stir-fry the veggies

    In the same wok, add 1 tbsp of olive oil. Sauté the garlic for 30 sec, then add the carrots and broccoli. Stir-fry for 4 to 5 min over high heat until tender but crunchy.

    Tip · If the wok smokes too much, turn down the heat and add a little water so the veggies don't stick.
  5. Bring the stir-fry together

    Put the tofu back in the wok with the veggies. Add the drained noodles, soy sauce and sesame oil. Toss well over low heat for 1 to 2 min to coat everything.

  6. Adjust the seasoning

    Taste and adjust the salt and pepper if needed. Serve right away.
