Method

Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Place a wok or large frying pan onto a high heat and add the toasted sesame seed oil. Once hot, add the marinated tofu pieces and hard fry for 4-5 minutes until slightly caramelised. Add the sliced garlic, sliced spring onions, grated carrots, and flat noodles.

Step 2

Stir the noodles around in the vegetables for 30 seconds before pouring in the Pad Thai sauce, soy and tamarind. Once again, coat the noodles and vegetables well, this time in the sauce, for 2-3 minutes. Now squeeze in half the lime juice.

Step 3

Add the bean sprouts and mix, over the heat for a further 1 minute before serving between all your bowls. Garnish with the chopped peanuts and serve with the remaining unsqueezes lime, cut into quarters. If you like an extra kick, drizzle over some sriracha sauce, which is optional, but very yummy.
