INSTRUCTIONS
Heat 15ml (1tbsp) groundnut oil in a large frying pan or wok. Add the tofu
and fry for 1-2 minutes until brown, turning gently. Remove and drain on
kitchen paper. In a bowl, gently mix the spices with the fried tofu.
Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan or wok until hot, add the pepper and
the onions and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes or until beginning to soften.
Meanwhile combine the cornflour, soy sauce, sherry, sugar and water, and
add to the vegetables. Continue to cook for a further 1-2 minutes, stirring
until thickened.
Add the sesame seeds and the tofu and heat gently for 2 minutes.
Cook the noodles according to the pack instructions, drain thoroughly and
combine with the tofu mixture.

NOTES : A delicious vegetarian dish to serve on its own or as part of a
complete Chinese meal. Made from soya milk in a similar process to
cheese-making, tofu is a natural vegetable product that is high in protein
and calcium and low in fat. It is extremely versatile and can be
stir-fried, grilled, barbecued and marinated. If you freeze tofu and then
defrost it, it becomes firmer and chewier with a more 'meaty' texture.
