Vegetarian Ramen Stir-Fry
So my family is trying to eat healthier, something which my little girl detests as she wants "bacaroni and cheese" for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Thus I need to find dishes that contain what she likes (noodles, mostly) and what I like (vegetables, mostly). The following is our compromise over chicken'n'ramen.
Ingredients:
1/3 brick of tofu
2 cups of Brocolli
1 cup grated (or diced) carrot
1 cup thinly sliced cabbage
1/4 cup minced cilantro
1 knuckle grated ginger root (or 1 tbsp prepared ginger)
1 clove of minced garlic (or 1/2 tbsp prepared garlic)
1 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp teriyaki sauce
1 tbsp butter
1 package Ramen noodles, cooked, drained and rinsed, WITHOUT THE SEASONING.
So. You heat up the butter in a frying pan and crumble in the tofu. Fry lightly. Add the garlic, ginger, and sauces. Swish the pan. Toss in the rest of the ingredients. Stir. Stir. Fry. Fry. This won't take very long.
Add the ramen. Stir thoroughly. Right now would be an awesome time to add some more sauce to taste if you like strong flavors, or add a dabble of sesame oil if you have some on hand.
Serve and enjoy! It takes about 15 to twenty minutes prep and cooking time, not counting however long it takes the water for the noodles to boil.
AWESOME.
