Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

Ingredients

2 tablespoons peanut oil
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
8 ounces broccoli, tops cut into florets, stems peeled, cut into thin strips
1 large carrot, peeled, cut into thin strips
1 celery stalk, thinly sliced
8 green onions, white parts cut into thin strips, green parts chopped
1 medium zucchini
1 medium-size yellow crookneck squash, cut lengthwise in half, then crosswise into 1/3-inch-thick slices
1 red bell pepper, cut into thin strips
2 tablespoons dry Sherry
10 ounces extra-firm or firm tofu, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
12 ounces spaghetti, freshly cooked
Chinese Peanut Sauce

Heat peanut oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add ginger and stir 30 seconds. Add broccoli, carrot and celery and sauté 5 minutes. Add white parts of green onions, zucchini, yellow squash, bell pepper and Sherry and sauté until vegetables are crisp-tender, about 3 minutes longer.

Tips:

Use fresh ingredients: Fresh vegetables, tofu, and peanuts will give your peanut noodles the best flavor.
Don't overcook the noodles: Cook the noodles according to the package directions, but be careful not to overcook them. Overcooked noodles will be mushy and bland.
Make the sauce ahead of time: The peanut sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. This will save you time when you're ready to make the noodles.
Add your favorite vegetables: In addition to the vegetables listed in the recipe, you can also add other vegetables that you like, such as broccoli, carrots, or bell peppers.
Adjust the spice level to your taste: If you like spicy food, you can add more red pepper flakes or Sriracha sauce to the sauce. If you don't like spicy food, you can omit the red pepper flakes or Sriracha sauce.

Conclusion:

Peanut noodles with tofu is a delicious, healthy, and easy-to-make meal. It's perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. The peanut sauce is creamy, flavorful, and slightly spicy. The tofu is a good source of protein and fiber. And the vegetables add crunch, color, and nutrition. If you're looking for a new and exciting way to enjoy noodles, give this recipe a try.
