Healthier version of classic Pad Thai with great flavor, low sat fat, high fiber.
Ingredients:
  • 1/2 x 375g packet dried medium rice stick noodles
  • 65.63 gm lime juice
  • 48.80 gm vegetarian oyster sauce
  • 10.60 gm soy sauce
  • 40.00 ml grated palm sugar
  • 1 large carrot
  • 27.30 gm peanut oil
  • 2 x 300g packets firm tofu, cut into 2cm cubes
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 1 brown onion, halved, cut into thin wedges
  • 200g green beans, trimmed, cut into 4cm lengths
  • 1 bunch broccolini, trimmed, halved crossways and lengthways
  • 125.00 ml bean sprouts, trimmed
  • 6.00 gm sesame seeds, toasted
  • 1 long red chilli, sliced
  • Lime wedges, to serve
Instructions:
  • Place the noodles in a large heatproof bowl and cover them with boiling water. Let them stand for 8 to 10 minutes until just tender. Use a fork to separate the noodles, then drain them. In a bowl, combine lime juice, oyster sauce, soy sauce, and sugar, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
  • Peel carrot into long thin strips using a vegetable peeler. Heat wok over medium-high heat, add 2 teaspoons of oil, and swirl to coat. Stir-fry tofu in 2 batches for 2 to 3 minutes until golden, then drain on paper towel. Add another 2 teaspoons of oil to the wok, pour in egg, swirl to cover the base, and cook for 1 minute until just set. Transfer the cooked egg to a board and slice thickly.
  • Pour the rest of the oil into the wok and toss in the onion. Sauté for 2 minutes until the onion becomes soft. Introduce the garlic and stir for 30 seconds until it releases its aroma. Toss in the beans and broccolini and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add in the carrot, noodles, tofu, egg, and sauce, then stir-fry for another 2 minutes until everything is heated through. Throw in the bean sprouts and mix well. Finish by sprinkling with sesame seeds and chili before serving with lime wedges.
