Gochujang tofu noodles

What you need

• ·200g firm tofu
• ·100g egg noodles
• ·80g frozen peas
• ·20g gochujang paste
• ·15g soy sauce
• ·8g garlic
• ·8g root ginger
• ·10g olive oil

Method

1. 1Tofu pressed between two plates with something heavy on top for 10 minutes. Wet tofu will not brown, and unbrowned tofu is why people say they don't like tofu.
2. 2Cubed and fried hard in the oil, undisturbed, until each face is properly golden.
3. 3Garlic and ginger in for thirty seconds, then gochujang and soy with a splash of water to make a sauce.
4. 4Noodles and peas straight in from the pan they cooked in, tossed until everything is coated.

Pressing the tofu is the only step that matters. Everything else is 5 minutes.
