Method
-
step 1
Put the tofu in a large bowl. Scatter over the cornflour and some salt and pepper. Mix well to coat. Heat the vegetable oil in a small frying pan on medium heat, then lower in the tofu and cook on all sides until golden, about 5-6 mins. Remove, then drain on kitchen paper and leave to cool.
-
step 2
In a large container, mix all the dressing ingredients together. Cook the udon following pack instructions.
-
step 3
Add the tofu to the container with the dressing, then top with the noodles, veg and the coriander, in that order, so the veg stays crunchy.
-
step 4
When you’re ready to serve, give it all a good shake to combine.
