Cambodian Noodle Bowl with Marinated Tofu
Prep time: 20 minutes Cooking time: 15 minutes Total time: 35 minutes Servings: 4 people
Ingredients:
- 4 portions thin rice noodles 3 tbsp vegetable oil
- 2 cloves smashed garlic 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1 block sliced tofu
- 4 tbsp MAHI Wing Marinade 1 cup corn starch
- 2 cups bean sprouts (blanched) 1/4 cup peanuts
- 2 sliced spring onions
- 1/2 sliced cucumber
- 1 cup coriander
- 1/2 fresh sliced red chilli 1 quartered lime
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
Instructions:
Start by marinating your tofu slices in 4 tablespoons of our MAHI marinade and let it sit while you boil your noodles.
Bring a large pot of water to the boil and submerge your noodles. Turn off the heat and allow the noodles to loosen by stirring them. Let them cook for up to 8 minutes, then drain and rinse the noodles under cold water. Drain in a colander to dry the noodles off as much as possible.
Pour your vegetable oil into a large pan and set to a medium heat until hot. Add the garlic into the oil and cook until golden to flavour the oil, then remove. Toss into the noodles for a few seconds and add some sea salt. Remove noodles and divide into bowls.
Place your tofu strips next to a bowl of corn starch, and submerge each slice until all sides are covered and set aside onto a new plate. Once all are coated, place them into a hot pan and sear off each side for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown. Remove your tofu from the pan and place onto a plate.
To serve, top each noodle bowl with the bean sprouts, peanuts, cucumber, spring onions and your fried tofu. Garnish with coriander, fresh chilli and lime - you can even drizzle a little more MAHI marinade for a bite! Time to dig in...
