GINGER MISO UDON WITH FRIED TOFU & BROCCOLINI
a little while ago i made nasu dengaku & i was blown away by the miso/mirin dressing.
both miso and mirin are a staple in my pantry and the dressing is really versatile & quick to whip up… so it’s perfect when you’re hungry and in a hurry. i know stir-frys are kind of a no-brainer so skip straight to the sauce part of the recipe and use it in place of your regular stir-fry sauce/dressing if you like.
cook/soak 200g of udon according to the packet instructions.
while noodles cook/soak oil a frying pan/wok with 1-2 tablespoons of sesame oil and fry about 200g of firm tofu (cut into strips) and a handful of broccolini stems.
in a small pan combine 1/4 cup or mirin, 1/4 cup of water and half-1 tablespoon of soy sauce. bring to boil & turn down immediately. add 1/4 cup of miso and tablespoon of sugar (or agave) and a teaspoon of fresh grated ginger. whisk to combine.
pour approximately 1/4 of your miso dressing into the frypan/wok. this will glaze the tofu/veg. cook until the tofu is golden & broccolini is easily pierced with a fork.
add the miso dressing & udon noodles to the tofu/veg. will serve two!
