Instructions

1

Lay the tofu in a wide, shallow dish and cover with boiling water. After 2 minutes, drain off the water and add the juice of half the lime, 1 garlic clove, crushed, half the chilli, chopped, and 1 tbsp soy sauce. Cover and leave to marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat a wok, spray with low fat spray and add the carrot and mushrooms. Stir fry for 1 minute then add the mangetout. Stir fry for 1 minute more then add the spring onion, chilli, ginger and garlic. Stir fry for 1 minute more then add the noodles, the remaining soy sauce and the juice of the remaining ½ lime.
