[INSIGHT]<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For the best results, use a large, non-stick frying pan to cook the sticky noodles without burning them.<\/p>\n<p>Start by heating the pan on medium heat with the vegetable oil until sizzling.<\/p>\n<p>Add your tofu or alternative protein and fry for around five minutes (or until browned). Flip and fry on the other side.<\/p>\n<p>Once golden and crispy, remove the contents of your pan and set aside for later.<\/p>\n<p><p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/page\/placeholder.gif\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/14\/590x\/secondary\/noodles-peanuts-tofu-recipe-fakeaway-4648599.jpg?r=1679674195172\"><\/p>\n<p>Peel the ginger with a teaspoon and grate before adding it to the pan along with the onion and garlic. Fry until the ingredients start to caramelise.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, water and red chilli.<\/p>\n<p>Lisa noted that you can the combined sauce ingredients to the pan once the garlic and ginger are lightly browned, at which point it should quickly thicken on the heat.<\/p>\n<p>Add the tofu back to the pan and stir until coated. After this, remove it from the pan and leave the sauce to simmer on the lowest heat.<\/p>\n<p>Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil and cook the noodles according to the instructions on the packet.<\/p>\n<p>Add the peanut butter to the sauce in the frying pan and whisk together until very smooth. Once cooked, drain the noodles (reserving the noodle water) and add them to the frying pan with the sauce.<\/p>\n<p>Serve the noodles while hot, topped with the crispy glazed tofu, cucumber, chopped peanuts, sesame seeds and coriander.<\/p>\n<p>While you can use meat instead, Lisa noted that tofu has many health benefits. She said: &#8220;Tofu is a gear source of &lsquo;complete&rsquo; protein &ndash; meaning that it has a well-balanced amino acid profile &ndash; in addition to potassium, fibre, magnesium, copper, iron and manganese.&nbsp; Some women have even claimed it helps them with menopausal symptoms such as hot flushes and mood swings. This is thought to be due to the phytoestrogens found in tofu and the fact they mimic the hormone oestrogen in the body.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/life-style\/food\/1750587\/recipe-peanut-noodles-fakeaway\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you&rsquo;ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.
