Method

  • step 1

    Heat a non-stick frying pan or wok over a high heat. Toss the tofu with 2 tsp of sesame oil and some seasoning, and fry for 3-4 minutes, turning regularly, or until golden all over, then tip out onto kitchen paper.

  • step 2

    Pour the remaining sesame oil into the pan and add the broccoli, pak choi and carrots, and stir-fry for 5 minutes until charred at the edges.

  • step 3

    In a bowl, mix together the cornflour, soy sauce and 100ml water to make a sauce, then stir in the garlic and sriracha. Reduce the heat of the pan to medium, and stir in the sauce.

  • step 4

    Tip in the noodles and toss everything until warmed through and the sauce has thickened. Divide between plates and top with the crispy tofu and a sprinkling of spring onions.
