SPICY RICE NOODLES WITH CRISPY TOFU AND SPINACH



Spicy Rice Noodles With Crispy Tofu and Spinach image

Herby noodles, chile oil and crisp tofu come together in this spicy, filling bowl that will disappear before you know it. But the component parts are just as valuable on their own: Make crisp baked tofu once, and you may never pan-fry cubes again. Make a scallion-basil paste on your cutting board, and forget about pesto from the food processor. And make a little extra spicy sesame oil, so that you can swirl it into scrambled eggs and smashed cucumber salads.

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

12 to 14 ounces firm tofu
1/2 to 1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon peanut or vegetable oil
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon panko (Japanese bread crumbs)
1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional)
8 ounces wide rice noodles
3 tablespoons sesame oil
3 tablespoons peanut oil
1 garlic clove, thinly sliced
1 (1-inch) piece of ginger, peeled and thinly sliced
1 1/2 teaspoons to 1 tablespoon red-pepper flakes, to taste
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, plus more for garnish (optional)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup roughly chopped basil, packed
3 large or 4 small scallions, roughly chopped
3 cups baby spinach, packed
1/2 lime
Toasted sesame oil, for drizzling (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. As the oven heats, press the tofu (you can do this by sandwiching the block in paper towels and placing a cutting board, plus a heavy pot, can or book on top).
  • Cut the tofu into 1/2-inch cubes and place in a medium bowl. Add the salt and oils, and toss to combine.
  • Sprinkle the cornstarch, panko and sesame seeds, if using, and toss gently so the tofu cubes are coated.
  • Spread on the prepared sheet and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, flipping once, until golden-brown and crisp.
  • While the tofu bakes, start the noodles: Put the dry rice noodles in a big, wide bowl. Fill a kettle, bring the water to a boil, and pour the boiling water over the noodles to cover. Set aside for 6 to 10 minutes, until the noodles are fully rehydrated and soft. (Time may vary by brand.) Then drain, rinse with cold water, and drain again. Transfer noodles to a large bowl.
  • As the noodles soak, prepare the spicy sesame oil: In a small pot, combine sesame oil, peanut oil, garlic, ginger, red-pepper flakes and sesame seeds. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook on the lowest heat for 10 to 12 minutes, until the garlic slices turn golden.
  • Meanwhile, on your cutting board, make a small mound with the teaspoon of salt. Place the basil and the scallions on top, and use your knife to furiously chop and smash until you have a rough paste.
  • Mix the basil paste into the bowl of rice noodles. Pile the baby spinach on top. Pour at least half of the hot oil immediately over the spinach, tossing so that the heat wilts the leaves slightly. Then add the juice of the 1/2 lime and toss to combine. Taste for salt and lime juice, and add more oil as you see fit.
  • Arrange the tofu on top of the noodles, or mix them in so that the cubes hide like little treasures. For extra flair, garnish with additional sesame seeds and a drizzle of toasted sesame oil.

LIGHT SPINACH PASTA WITH TOFU



Light Spinach Pasta With Tofu image

A simple and light spinach with pasta recipe which I make for lunch at least once a week. My oven doesn't work so this is baking free!

Provided by directions

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 45m

Yield 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups fresh spinach
3 ounces pasta (any shape)
3 ounces firm tofu, cubed
1 large onion
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 tablespoon oil
red pepper powder
salt

Steps:

  • Boil pasta according to package directions but only till its almost done.
  • Wash and clean the spinach and steam with a little water for 4 minutes in the microwave.
  • Once it is steamed, blenderize it with the same water to get a spinach paste which is kind of watery
  • In a large non stick skillet, heat oil.
  • When oil gets hot, add the chopped garlic.
  • When the garlic is slightly browned add the onions and stir fry till the onions turn brown.

NOODLES AND SPINACH WITH TOFU



Noodles and Spinach With Tofu image

A little different than some of the other recipes I've read, so I posted. This came from the Buffalo News and is my favorite way to eat tofu. It's important to put the noodles in before the spinach or the spinach with soak up all the sauce. I always add some finely chopped onions to this recipe because I like them, but iIll post the original. It's high in mono and poly-unsaturated fats (good fats), has a bunch of fiber, is a vegan meal, and most importantly, super good! Even my parents, who hate tofu, love this.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 20m

Yield 4 , 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb whole wheat spaghetti, cooked
1 lb frozen or fresh steamed spinach
1 -1 1/2 lb firm tofu, cut into 3/4 inch cubes
2 -4 tablespoons sesame oil
2 -4 tablespoons soy sauce
2 -4 teaspoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons peanut butter

SPINACH DUMPLINGS WITH TOFU AND RICE NOODLES



Spinach Dumplings With Tofu and Rice Noodles image

Want showstopping presentation? Make homemade dumpling wrappers to stuff with a filling of spinach, hearty tofu, vermicelli, and fruity Sichuan peppercorns.

Provided by Jason Wang

Categories     Lunar New Year     Boil     Spinach     Peanut Free     Dairy Free     Sesame     Sesame Oil     Tofu     Vegetarian     Appetizer     Lunch     Dinner

Yield Makes about 60 dumplings

Number Of Ingredients 19

Spinach dumpling skin dough:
10 ounces (280 g) spinach
¼ teaspoon salt
4 cups (500 g) all-purpose flour or high-gluten flour, plus more for dusting
Tools: Cheesecloth; Thin, evenly cylindrical rolling pin, roughly 1½ inches (4 cm) in diameter
Spinach dumpling filling:
½ carrot, peeled and sliced lengthwise into ½-inch (12 mm) thick strips, about 2 ounces (60 g)
1 green onion, trimmed and finely chopped
3 tablespoons (45 ml) toasted sesame oil
4 Shanghai baby bok choy, root ends removed, about 3 ounces (90 g)
Spinach left over from making dumpling skins or 10 ounces (280 g) fresh spinach, finely chopped, mixed with ¼ teaspoon salt
2 ounces (60 g) rice vermicelli noodles, soaked in hot water for 5 minutes, drained, and coarsely chopped
2 ounces (60 g) fried tofu, finely chopped
1-inch (2.5 cm) piece fresh ginger, peeled and finely chopped
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon white pepper powder
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
½ teaspoon Sichuan peppercorns
1 egg

Steps:

  • Spinach dumpling skin dough:
  • Wash the spinach well. Drain and pat dry. Add the spinach, salt, and 1 cup (240 ml) water to a blender or food processor and blend until it forms a smooth puree. Strain the mixture through a cheesecloth, reserving the liquid in a measuring cup, which should yield at least 1½ cups (360 ml). Put aside the drained spinach for the filling.
  • In a large bowl, add the flour and gradually stream in 1 cup (240 ml) of the reserved spinach liquid, using one hand to mix.
  • Then gradually add the remaining spinach liquid a little at a time, using both hands to knead for about 5 minutes, until it all comes together and forms a smooth dough. You may not use all the liquid. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let rest at room temperature for 10 minutes.
  • After resting, remove the plastic wrap and knead the dough in the bowl a few more times. Cover again with plastic wrap and let rest for another 10 minutes. You may repeat this process one more time for a chewier dough, but the chewier the dough is, the stickier and trickier it will be to work with.
  • Cover with a damp cloth or plastic wrap while you prep your fillings.
  • Do Ahead: The dumpling skins are best used day of, but if you can't make the dumplings right away, it's best to store the dough in unrolled pieces, generously dusted on all sides with flour to prevent sticking. Cover with plastic or place in a covered container and store for up to 2 days in the refrigerator.
  • Spinach dumpling filling:
  • Prep a bowl of ice water. Bring a medium pot of water to a boil over medium heat and add the carrot. Cook for about 5 minutes, then immediately remove the carrot to the bowl of ice water to shock them and stop the cooking process. Meanwhile, marinate the green onion in the sesame oil for 5 minutes.
  • Add the bok choy to the boiling water and cook for about 1 minute, then remove and add to the ice water. Once cooled, squeeze the bok choy between your hands or in a dishcloth to drain it of all water.
  • Finely chop the carrot and bok choy, then add them to a bowl and combine with the reserved spinach.
  • Add the vermicelli noodles, fried tofu, ginger, green onion in sesame oil, salt, and white pepper powder to the bowl of vegetables and mix to combine by stirring in one direction to promote better cohesion of the filling.
  • Set a small pan over low heat and add the vegetable oil. Add the Sichuan peppercorns and fry until fragrant, about 8 minutes. Carefully strain and discard the peppercorns and pour the infused oil into the bowl of dumpling filling. Stir to combine.
  • Allow the filling to cool slightly, then crack in the egg and mix in one direction to combine.
  • Do Ahead: Store in an airtight container in the fridge until ready to use, up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 3 months.
  • Roll out your dumpling skins:
  • Using your hands, roll the dough into a long and even snake-like cylindrical shape until it is about 1 inch (2.5 cm) in diameter.
  • On a large wooden board or a clean work counter, use a knife to cut even, 1-inch (2.5-cm) segments of the dough. (Note: You can also rip pieces off by hand, but it requires a certain experience, accuracy, and speed. Cutting with a knife is definitely easier.)
  • Sprinkle a little flour on the board or work surface to prevent sticking (but don't go overboard). Place each segment on the board with the cut part facing up (like a little stubby piece of firewood), and use the heel of your palm to flatten it slightly on the board.
  • Hold a small cylindrical roller with your dominant hand. With your other hand, hold the piece of dough by the edge. From the opposite edge, gently roll the piece of dough with your roller toward the center and then back, then turn the dough slightly and roll again toward the center and back. Repeat this several times until the dough becomes an almost-perfect circle, 2½ to 3 inches (6 to 7.5 cm) in diameter. The idea is to roll the dough out evenly from the sides so it is smooth and round, with the center slightly thicker than the edges (around 1⁄8 inch/3 mm thick overall).
  • Repeat this process for all pieces of dough and use immediately in folding dumplings.
  • Wrap the dumplings:
  • Prep a tray or a plate by sprinkling flour on the bottom to prevent sticking.
  • Put a dumpling skin on the palm of your hand.
  • Use a spoon (or chopsticks) to scoop 1 to 2 tablespoons of your filling mixture into the middle of the skin. Fold the skin in half so the two sides meet and can be pressed into each other to bind. Squeeze the rest of the sides together as well. Make sure the sides are pressed fully into each other to avoid the dumplings breaking, and avoid any filling touching the edges, as the oil in the filling could prevent the sides from sticking properly. (Note: If you're using store-bought skins, wet the rim of the wrapper with a little bit of water to help the edges seal. The goal is to maximize the amount of filling in your dumpling, but not put so much that the dumpling breaks or cannot be pressed together.)
  • Place the finished dumplings in your prepared tray or plate, being careful to space them apart so they don't stick.
  • Do Ahead: These are best cooked and eaten fresh, but you can also place the entire tray of folded dumplings in the freezer, covered carefully with plastic wrap. Once the dumplings are frozen solid, transfer them to an airtight zip-top bag and freeze for up to 3 months.
  • Boil dumplings:
  • Bring a large pot of water to a simmer, with the water on the verge of boiling. Right before the water boils, gently add the dumplings-this timing is crucial to prevent cracking. Keep the dumplings moving so they don't stick. When the water comes up to a boil again, add ½ cup (120 ml) cold water and stir. Repeat two more times. Once it comes up to a boil the fourth time, the dumplings should be floating and ready to eat, but if you're nervous, go ahead and cut one open to check. The entire process should take 10 minutes. Fish out the dumplings with a slotted spoon and serve with dumpling sauce, chili oil, sesame oil, and roasted sesame seeds.
