Teriyaki Tofu & Noodles | AD

I love dabbling with asian cuisine. One of my earliest recipes is my take on Pho, a Vietnamese noodle soup that I still love to this day! I find asian food has so many bright flavours, and as someone who eats predominantly vegetarian and vegan meals, asian-inspired meals incorporate lots of brilliant vegetarian options.

This dish has Cauldron‘s Organic Marinated Tofu as the star of the show. The little pieces of tofu are delightfully spiced with tamari soy sauce, garlic and ginger, to which I add a complimentary DIY teriyaki sauce and diced vegetables sat in a bed of noodles. As with most of my recipes, feel free to add your own twists – the dish is also nice with sliced water chestnut or fresh beansprouts for a crunch, or chilli flakes for a pinch of fiery goodness.

This recipe is also a great starting point if you’re looking for a meal for the office or on the go. Cauldron’s tofu can be eaten straight from the box rather than cooked, making meals one step easier to whip up, so perhaps you could try pairing it with cooked noodles, a few edamame beans, and a sweet chilli sauce. Let me know if you give this, or my recipe below, a try!
