Tofu Stir Fry

My mom came to visit us last week, so I did not have time to post new enteries in a while. However, I did have time to cook us some diners and take some pictures. I will be posting them soon (I do have to try to remember what I put in each recipe, so it is more than possible that I will miss something).

This dish is another Asian noodles dish similar to the pad thai I made last week. This dish is all veggie and uses different noodles.

6 oz package bean thread noodles
Oil of frying
8 oz firm tofu (cut into 1 inch squares)
2 bunches broccoli floweretts (chopped)
1 shallot (diced)
1 tbsp crushed garlic
3 tsp sesame oil
1 tbsp soy sauce 1 tsp chili sauce
1 tsp sugar
1 chili pepper (diced)
1 egg

Soak noodles for 45 minutes or so and set aside. Heat enough oil in a wok to cover the tofu. Once the oil is hot enough that a drop of water will sizzle add the tofu. Fry till tofu starts to brown (about 10 minutes) and set aside on paper towel. Pour oil into a can to set aside or dispose. Add broccoli and stir fry to your taste (perhaps 5 minutes or so) and set aside.

Next add the sesame oil, shallot, chili sauce, sugar and garlic and chili pepper. Blend well cooking for a couple more minutes. Scramble in egg and than add the noddles. Mix well. Last mix in the broccoli and tofu.
