Cooking Steps

Get prepped
1

Bring a medium saucepan of water to the boil. Finely chop the garlic (or use a garlic press). Cut the capsicum into thin strips. Slice the zucchini into 1cm half-moons. Grate the carrot (unpeeled). Zest the lime to get a generous pinch, then cut into wedges. Roughly chop the coriander. Cut the Malaysian tofu into 1cm cubes.

Cook the noodles
2

Add the udon noodles to the saucepan of boiling water and cook until softened, 2 minutes. Drain and rinse. Add a small drizzle of olive oil to prevent the noodles sticking together.

TIP: Use a fork to help separate the noodles!

Fry the tofu
3

Heat a large frying pan over a medium-high heat with a generous drizzle of olive oil. Add the tofu and cook, tossing, until browned all over, 4-5 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the sweet chilli sauce and soy sauce (for the tofu). Turn to coat the tofu in the sauce. Transfer to a plate.

Cook the veggies
4

Wipe out the pan and return to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Add the capsicum, zucchini and carrot and cook until just tender, 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes.

Bring it all together
5

While the veggies are cooking, in a small bowl, add the dark roasted peanut butter, hot water, soy sauce (for the sauce), sesame oil blend, brown sugar, lime zest and a generous squeeze of lime juice. Stir to combine. Add the udon noodles to the veggies in the frying pan. Add the peanut mixture and 1/2 the crushed peanuts and toss until well combined and heated through.

Serve up
6

Divide the veggies and noodles between bowls and top with the sweet chilli tofu. Garnish with the coriander and remaining crushed peanuts. Serve with the remaining lime wedges.
