Ingredients

• 250 grams High-protein spaghetti or noodles
• 200 grams Firm tofu
• 8 stalks Scallions
• 3 cloves Garlic
• 60 milliliters Soy sauce
• 30 milliliters Sesame oil
• 15 milliliters Honey
• 1 teaspoon Red chili flakes
• 50 grams Peanuts
• 15 milliliters Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Start by boiling a pot of water and cook the high-protein noodles according to package instructions. Once cooked, drain and set aside.

Step 2

While the noodles are cooking, press the tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut the tofu into small cubes.

Step 3

Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the tofu cubes and cook until they are golden on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove tofu from the pan and set aside.

Step 4

Chop the scallions, separating the white and green parts. Finely mince the garlic cloves.

Step 5

In the same pan, add the sesame oil. Once heated, add the chopped white parts of the scallions and minced garlic. Sauté for a minute until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the cooked noodles to the pan with the sautéed scallions and garlic. Pour in the soy sauce, honey, and red chili flakes, tossing everything to combine well.

Step 7

Reintroduce the cooked tofu into the pan, mixing gently to coat everything evenly with the sauce.

Step 8

Toast the peanuts in a small dry pan over medium heat until they become aromatic and slightly golden, about 2 minutes. Roughly chop them.

Step 9

Serve the noodles hot, garnished with toasted peanuts and the green parts of the scallions as a refreshing and zesty topping.
