SPICY TOFU AND VEGETABLE LO MEIN

Steps:

• Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil. Pat the tofu dry between 2 layers of paper towels; season with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the tofu and cook, turning once, until well browned and slightly crisp, about 15 minutes; transfer to a plate.
• Meanwhile, cook the pasta in the boiling water, 1 to 2 minutes less than the label directs for al dente. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain. Mix the soy sauce, oyster sauce and 1/2 cup of the cooking water in a small bowl.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil to the skillet. Increase the heat to high and add the broccoli. Cook, stirring, until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Add the bell pepper, carrot, jalapeno and ginger and cook until just softened, 2 more minutes. Add the noodles, tofu and soy sauce mixture and cook, tossing, until most of the sauce is absorbed, about 2 minutes. Stir in enough of the remaining 1/2 cup cooking water to loosen. Drizzle with the sesame oil, season with salt and toss.

TOFU LO MEIN

Steps:

• ** To drain tofu: Remove from package and pat dry with paper towel. Place long side down on dinner plate, top with another plate and put heavy weight on it. Weight could be a small potful of water, a heavy can, or even your iron. Set aside and leave like that while you prepare vegetables.
• When vegetables are all cut and ready, remove the tofu slabs, pat dry and cube.
• Place tofu cubes in a bowl and add sesame oil and 2 tsp soy sauce. Toss and set aside.
• At this point, you can place everything into the refrigerator, covered, for up to 24 hours. This way you can prepare in the morning or night before, and finish for dinner.
• Put broth and 3 tsp soy sauce in a large saucepan. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer.
• Stir in vegetables and vinegar. Continue to simmer,covered about five minutes.
• Add noodles, stir.
• Simmer about 6 minutes uncovered, until noodles have just about absorbed the liquid, stir occasionally. If using lingune, you MAY have to use all or part of the leftover 1/2 cup of broth at this time.
• Gently stir in tofu and pepper flakes.
• Cover, remove from heat source, and let sit about five minutes allowing pepper flakes to meld.
• Serve and enjoy. This goes well with my Raindrop Soup.
