Spicy Soba Protein Bowls
Ingredients
Scale
- 400 grams (14 ounces) uncooked soba noodles
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1/3 cup sesame oil
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons chili paste (I like gojuchang)
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
- 1/2 chunk of fresh ginger, peeled and roughly chopped (about 2 tablespoons minced)
- 16 ounces firm or extra firm tofu, cubed (optionally pressed)
- Vegetable oil for cooking
- 2 cups fresh or thawed edamame, shelled
- Green onions, sliced
- Sesame seeds
Instructions
- Start water boiling for the soba noodles. Cook according to package directions. As soon as they’re done, drain and rinse with cold water to stop them cooking.
- Place all sauce ingredients, peanut butter through ginger, in a blender or food processor. Blend until well mixed; set aside.
- In a skillet, heat a little oil until shimmering. Saute tofu until golden. Let it sit on each side before you flip in order to get the nicest color. When it’s all toasted, add a few tablespoons of sauce and edamame. Cook for a few more minutes until edamame are warmed through.
- Toss soba noodles with remaining sauce. Served topped with tofu and edamame, green onions and sesame seeds. Enjoy!
