Asian Bowl With Tofu
This Asian Bowl with Tofu and Noodles is perfect for a keto diet since I used shirataki noodles. I love this vegan dish which is both quick and easy to make. I served my Asian bowl with Tofu with a really good tahini sauce.

Instructions
- Place the tofu on top of a kitchen towel or paper towels. Set some heavy objects on top and let drain for at least 30 minutes.
- Mix the tofu marinade ingredients (2 tbsp oil, 1 minced garlic clove, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1/2 tbsp red wine vinegar) in a bowl until well combined.
- Slice the tofu into pieces and move into a plastic bag together with the tofu marinade. Store in the fridge for 30 minutes.
- Time to prepare the tahini sauce. Using a blender, mix together 1/2 cup coconut milk, 1 tsp tahini paste, 1 tsp sambal oelek, 1 tsp red wine vinegar, 1 tsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp olive oil and freshly squeezed juice from 1/2 a lime. Store the tahini sauce in the fridge until serving. Start preparing the vegetables.
- Cut the broccoli into florets, slice the mushrooms and bell pepper. Shred the carrot.
- Heat up a large frying-pan with olive oil. Add broccoli and mushrooms and fry on medium-high heat for a few minutes.
- Heat up a smaller frying-pan with olive oil.
- Place the tofu in the smaller frying-pan and fry for 3 minutes on each side, or until golden.
- Drain the shirataki noodles and place in a sieve. Wash under running water. Transfer into a pot with boiling water and cook for 2-3 minutes.
- Add bell pepper and sugar peas to the large frying-pan with broccoli and mushrooms. Add just a splash of soy sauce and stir. Fry for another 2 minutes.
- Pour over the vegetables to a bowl or plate. Serve your Asian bowl with tofu, shredded carrot and shirataki noodles.
