Noodles With Tofu, Bok Choy And Hoisin Sauce

• 250 grams noodles I used Vietnamese stir-fry ones
• 2 baby bok choy
• 100 grams firm tofu cubed into bite size pieces
• 4 button mushrooms sliced
• 4 garlic cloves finely chopped
• 1 inch ginger finely chopped
• 1 onion medium, chopped
• 1 jalapeno /green chili, de-seeded and julienne
• 1/2 teaspoon red chili flakes optional
• 1 pinch crushed black pepper
• 2 tablespoons oil
• 4 tablespoons hoisin sauce
• 1 teaspoon chili garlic sauce
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1/8 teaspoon chinese 5 spice powder
• 1/2 cup vegetable stock salt free preferred
• salt to taste

1. In a non-stick pan heat 1 teaspoon oil on medium heat. Once the oil is hot add the tofu and ensure you spread it evenly. Flip and cook on both sides until light golden brown.
2. Mix together hoisin sauce, chili garlic sauce, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, Chinese 5 spice powder, vegetable stock and salt. Set aside.
3. Cook noodles as instructed on the package. Drain and immediately wash with cold water. Sprinkle a few drops of sesame oil or any regular oil and coat the noodles well. Keep aside.
4. Wash the baby Bok Choy thoroughly, remove the stem and cut into four long pieces vertically.
5. Heat 2 tablespoon oil in a wok on high heat. Add the ginger and garlic, saute for 30 seconds. Now add onion and jalapeno, saute for couple of minutes until it turns translucent.
6. Throw in the mushrooms and bok choy, saute for a minute then add the sauce and mix well. Let the sauce reduce a little and then add pan fried tofu, stir fry for 30 seconds. Sprinkle red chili flakes if you are using and black pepper.
7. Lastly add noodles, I always sprinkle a little water and then seperate the noodles so that there are not sticky. Saute until noodles are coated well with sauce.
8. Check for seasoning. Serve hot!
