I adore asian food! I also like that it's pretty quick and easy, and super yummy! Try this dish tonight. It can be spicy hot or mild depending on how much chili garlic sauce you add. Most of the strange stuff listed is in the asian food aisle in the regular grocery store.
2 pkg. Ramen noodles (any flavor) or rice noodles from asian aisle
2 Tbsp. Canola oil
1 C. firm tofu, cubed (or chunks of cooked chicken)
2 C. Broccoli cole slaw mix (in salad section at store)
1 C. Bean Sprouts (mung bean sprouts- you can use canned if you have to, but fresh is better.)
1/3 C. peanut butter
*1 Tbsp. Chili Garlic Sauce (in asian food aisle)- this adds heat, add only 1 tsp at first if you don't like spicy food, then add to it if you like.
3 Tbsp. Fish sauce (asain food aisle)
3 Tbsp Soy Sauce
1/2 small bunch Cilantro- broken, not chopped
1 lime
To begin, boil water in pot and cook Ramen noodles just until tender. (don't overcook until mushy!) Heat oil in wok or large frying pan and toss in slaw mix and 3/4 cup of the bean sprouts. Sprinkle flavor packets from Ramen noodles onto vegetables and add peanut butter, chili sauce, fish sauce and soy sauce; stir. Add tofu. Remove noodles from pot (reserve 1 C. of the water from the pot) and add noodles to veggies. Add reserved water from pot.
Stir over med. heat allowing liquid to thicken slightly. Add torn cilantro and remaining bean sprouts. Squeeze half of the lime over the noodles and remove from heat. Slice remaining half lime in half and place on top of each plate with a garnish of Cilantro and/or chopped peanuts, serve.
