Okinawa Soba With Stir Fried Vegetables Recipes

Steps:

• Saute the peppers, carrots and broccoli in oil in a wok or large skillet until the veggies are crisp-tender, about 3-4 minutes.
• Combine the soy sauce and ginger and add to the pan with the green onions and stir-fry for 1 minute.
• Combine cornstarch, broth and water and whisk until smooth and gradually stir into the vegetables.
• Bring to a boil and cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened.

Steps:

• In a large pot or dutch oven cook noodles according to package directions. Drain well and set aside.
• In a large nonstick skillet or wok heat oil over medium heat. Add mushrooms, bell pepper, dried chiles, and garlic cooking for 3 minutes or until the mushrooms are tender. Add the cabbage, cover, and cook for 2 minutes or until the cabbage is wilted.
• In a small bowl combine chicken broth, tamari, rice wine and cornstarch. Stir this into the vegetable mixture and cook 2 minutes or until the sauce is bubbling. Add drained noodles and tofu, toss mixture gently until heated through. Garnish with green onions and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Combine stock, soy sauce, rice wine or sherry, sugar and salt to taste in a small bowl. Stir until sugar and salt dissolve. Combine garlic, ginger, and pepper flakes or minced chile in another bowl.
• Bring a large saucepan or pot of water to a boil, add salt to taste and baby broccoli. As soon as water comes back to a boil (about 1 minute), use a skimmer to remove broccoli and transfer it to a bowl of cold water. Drain in a colander, then on paper towels. Cut stems away from florets and slice about 1/2 inch thick. Bring water back to a boil and cook soba. Drain and toss with 2 teaspoons sesame oil.
• Place all ingredients within reach of your wok. Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within a second or two when added. Swirl in 1 tablespoon of the oil and add tofu. Stir-fry 1 to 2 minutes, until it begins to color, and remove to a plate. Add remaining oil and garlic, ginger and chile. Stir-fry for no more than 10 seconds and add mushrooms. Stir-fry for 1 minute and add broccoli and the light parts of the scallions. Stir-fry 1 to 2 minutes. Add the noodles, tofu and the stock mixture. Reduce heat to medium and stir-fry 1 to 2 minutes. Add cilantro and the dark green part of the scallions, stir-fry another 30 seconds to a minute, until well combined, and serve.
