- 2 carrot, cut in half lengthways & thinly sliced
Satay sauce
- 1 1/2 Tbsp soy sauce
- 1 1/2 Tbsp sweet chilli sauce
- 400ml coconut milk
- 90g peanut butter
Noodles
- 1/2 tsp sesame oil
- 600g udon noodles
Tofu
- 900g tofu, diced 2cm

- 1 drizzle of oil

To Serve
- 1 pack whole peanuts
Steps
-
Preheat oven to 230°C (or 210°C fan bake). Bring a medium pot of salted water to the boil.
-
Pat tofu dry and tear into chunks roughly 2cm. Add to a large bowl, season with salt and gently toss together with cornflour and oil, until well coated. Transfer to a lined oven tray, spread into a single layer and bake on upper oven rack for 15-20 minutes, until golden.
-
Separate noodles and cook in pot of boiling water for about 3 minutes, until tender. Drain, refresh under cold water and leave to drain again. Toss with sesame oil to prevent sticking.
-
In a small pot, whisk all satay sauce ingredients together, until combined. Bring to a simmer on medium-high heat. Once simmering, cook for a further 1-2 minutes, until thickened. Cover and keep warm.
-
Cut carrot in half lengthways and thinly slice, slice onion and cut broccoli into florets (see tip). Heat oil in a large frypan on medium-high. Cook onion, carrot and broccoli for about 5 minutes, until tender. Add cooked noodles to pan with veggies and cook a further 1-2 minutes, until warmed through. Season to taste with soy sauce.
-
Once tofu has finished baking, remove tray from oven, drizzle over mild sweet chilli sauce and toss to coat tofu.
-
Noodles topped with veggies, satay sauce and tofu. Sprinkle over peanuts.
