• Add the soba noodles, reserved sauce, and sesame seeds. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until warmed through. Remove the pan from the heat.
• Garnish with green onions, if desired.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Remove tofu from container and drain. In a large bowl, mash the tofu with a potato masher. Place crumbles in a strainer and allow as much excess water to drain out as possible. (This is VERY important! Do not skip this step!).
• While tofu is draining in strainer, peel and shred carrots and prepare green onions.
• In a small bowl, combine soy sauce,sugar and mirin.
• In a large skillet, heat sesame oil. When oil is hot, add carrots and green onions. Saute for 2-3 minutes, add the tofu and mix together, continue to saute.
• Add soy sauce mixture. Allow to cook until carrots are tender but not over cooked.
• Serve over cooked rice.

Steps:

• Stir together the soy sauce, honey and vinegar in a bowl, then set aside.
• Pat the tofu chunks dry, then season well. Heat half the oil in a wok or large frying pan over a high heat. Fry the tofu for 5 mins until golden, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic and ginger and fry for 1 min more. Tip the tofu mixture into a bowl, pour over half the soy dressing and set aside.
• Add the remaining oil to the wok. Add the vegetables and cook for 5 mins until beginning to turn golden, then add a good splash of water and cook for 3-5 mins more until tender.
• Stir the cornflour and 1 tbsp water into the remaining soy dressing, then tip into the wok, allow to bubble for 30 seconds, stirring to coat everything in the sauce. Sprinkle over the spring onion, sesame seeds and coriander. Serve with rice.
