Tofu Soup With Scallions And Sprouts Food

TOFU SOUP WITH SCALLIONS AND SPROUTS

Steps:

• Heat the chicken broth and warm four soup bowls. In a large mixing bowl, combine the bean sprouts, chili oil, scallions, coriander, mint and basil and toss well to combine. Set aside for 10 minutes.
• Place 1 cup rice in each of the 4 warm bowls. Divide the sprout mixture evenly over the rice, top with tofu cubes. Add the lemon juice to the hot chicken broth and ladle into each bowl and serve immediately.

TOFU AND SCALLIONS

Steps:

• First cover the mushrooms in roughly four cups of boiling water and soak while you're preparing the rest of the ingredients.
• Mince the ginger, slice the tofu into 1 inch cubes, julienne the scallions. Mix the thickener (arrowroot, water, oyster sauce and sesame oil) in a small bowl.
• Heat a nonstick frying pan or wok on the stove. When it's hot add the oil and then the ginger. When the ginger starts to turn golden then add the tofu and shitake mushrooms. Almost immediately add about a cup of the mushroom soaking liquid and soy sauce.
• Cook for 5 minutes turning once (be careful not to break up the tofu cubes). Toss the scallions on top, stir in the thickener and cook until the arrowroot turns clear. Serve with steamed rice.

KIMCHI AND TOFU SOUP

Steps:

• Heat sesame oil in a pan and sauté kimch for a few minutes.
• Add 2 cups of water or vegetable stock, tofu, bean sprouts, and mushrooms.
• Cover and bring to boil. Reduce heat and cook until vegetables are soft.
• Add scallions and cook a few more minutes.
• Adjust the taste with some salt (about 1/2 tsp).
• Transfer the soup to bowls, infuse love and serve!

STIR-FRIED NOODLES WITH TOFU, SCALLIONS AND PEANUTS

Steps:

• Soak the dried rice noodles in a bowl of very warm (110F) water until they're pliable, but still rather firm, about 30 minutes. Drain in a colander - no need to pat dry. Meanwhile prep the rest of the ingredients.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, molasses, rice vinegar, ketchup, ginger, salt and cayenne.
• Once the noodles are drained, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large (12-inch) skillet or stir-fry pan over high heat until very hot. Add the garlic, stir, and then immediately add the soy sauce-molasses mixture. When the mixture is bubbling, add the tofu.
• Stir briefly to combine. Add the noodles and cook, stirring and tossing, until the noodles are tender and the liquid is absorbed, 1 to 2 minutes. If the noodles aren't tender and the liquid is gone, add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water.
• Add the bean sprouts and scallions and cook, stirring gently, until the bean sprouts begin to turn limp, about 1 minute.
• Push the nooldes to one side of the skillet and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil. Crack the egg into the oil. Scramble the egg lightly until it is almost but not completely cooked, breaking it up as you go, about 30 seconds.
• Fold the noodles back over the egg, add the peanuts, and stir-fry, stirring gently, until the egg is completely cooked. Sprinkle with the cilantro and serve immediately with the lime wedges on the side.
