Ingredients
Pad Thai
- 12,5 oz noodles of choice 350g, or gluten-free rice noodles
- 1 zucchini spiralized into noodles
- 2 carrots spiralized into noodles
- 1 red bell pepper finely sliced
- 1/2 bunch of scallion sliced, or 1 onion
- 3-4 garlic cloves minced
- 10,5 oz mushrooms 300g, sliced
- 7 oz firm tofu 200g, cut into cubes
- 1/2 tsp turmeric optional
- 2-3 tbsp soy sauce or tamari sauce
- 2-3 tbsp peanut oil or other oil
- 1 tsp chili flakes or to taste
- 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter 60ml
- 1/4 cup coconut milk 60ml, or other non-dairy milk
- 1/4 cup soy sauce or Tamari, 60ml
- 1-2 tbsp agave syrup or other sweetener
- squeeze of fresh lime juice optional
- a bit of water only if needed
- 1/2 cup roasted peanuts crushed
- fresh coriander to garnish
- sesame to sprinkle
- Soak the noodles according to the packing instructions or cook until 'al dente'. Drain and set aside. Optionally, toss with a little oil to avoid sticking together.
- Cut the vegetables with a knife or spiralize them using a spiralizer (* as shown in the step-by-step pictures in the text).
- Drain the tofu well, then wrap in kitchen paper and squeeze out the remaining liquid. Then cut the tofu into cubes and marinate with turmeric.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet (or wok). Sauté the scallions and garlic, stirring constantly. Then transfer to a plate and set aside.
- Heat another tablespoon of oil in the same pan and fry the tofu from all sides until crispy. Then remove and set aside.
- Now fry the mushrooms for about 3-4 minutes. Add the crispy tofu, deglaze with soy sauce and stir until well combined and nicely browned.
- Add the prepared vegetables and sauté until slightly softened, but still crisp.
- In the meantime, mix all ingredients for the peanut sauce. (You can heat the peanut butter over a water bath until melted, making it easier to stir.)
- Add the cooked noodles, roasted scallions & garlic, chili flakes, and peanut sauce. Toss to combine and heat until warmed through, for about 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Sprinkle coriander, chopped peanuts, and sesame over your Pad Thai, and serve with fresh limes, if desired.
- Enjoy!
