Cooking Instructions

Combine the chopped red chillies and mini cucumbers shaved into ribbons with the blanched sugar snap peas. Mix through the noodles.

Slice the firm tofu into 6 pieces. Mix corn flour with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.

Dip the tofu in the corn flour, then shallow-fry in a pan in hot vegetable oil until lightly golden and crispy. Remove from the oil and drain on kitchen paper. Arrange the hot tofu on the noodles.

To make the dressing, toast crushed garlic in a pan with sesame oil. Add soya sauce, chopped chilli, the juice of 1 lime and maple syrup. When it starts to bubble, add rice wine vinegar and spoon over the tofu and noodles while hot.

Sprinkle with black sesame seeds to serve.
