Method

  1. Drop the noodles into a pan of boiling water, cook for 4 mins, then drain. Drizzle over a little oil and mix in half the coriander.
  2. Heat a wok over a medium heat. Pour in the remaining oil, then throw in the mangetout and stir-fry for 2 mins. Add the chilli and cook for 2 mins more until the beans are just tender.
  3. Tip the hazelnuts, tofu and yellow bean sauce into the wok and stir to warm through. Finally, stir in the remaining coriander, season if you want to, and serve with the noodles.

Give it a twist

Use sliced runner beans instead of mangetout or toasted sesame seeds instead of hazelnuts.

Chinese flavour

Yellow bean sauce is a sweet and savoury Chinese stir-fry sauce flavoured with garlic and sesame.

Good Food know-how

Silken-style tofu has a delicate, smooth texture but is firm enough to maintain its shape when cooked. Tofu has a mild taste when eaten on its own, but when mixed with other ingredients, it absorbs their flavours.

    This recipe was okay... nothing special. There was a bit too much tofu so you were left with loads of tofu and no noodles or vegetables after a while. I probably won't make it again.
