Instructions

Cook the Noodles
1

Bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with 1/4 tsp salt for the noodles. When boiling, add the noodles and bring back to the boil. Cook until tender, 4 mins. Once cooked, drain in a sieve and set the pan aside. TIP: Run the noodles under cold water to stop them sticking together. Fill your kettle and pop it on to boil for the laksa.

Get Prepped
2

While the noodles cook, halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into small pieces. Trim and thinly slice the spring onion. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Zest and halve the lime. Drain and cut the tofu into 2cm cubes. Pat dry with kitchen paper.

Start the Laksa
3

Once the noodles are drained, pop the (now empty) saucepan back on medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Add the pepper, garlic and half the spring onion. Stir-fry for 2-3 mins, then add the red Thai style paste. Stir-fry for 1 more min, then stir in the coconut milk.

Add the Flavour
4

Add the boiling water from your kettle (see ingredients for amount) and the vegetable stock paste to the pan, then bring to a simmer. Stir in the peanut butter and sugar (see ingredients for amount). Simmer until thickened, 8-10 mins.

Fry the Tofu
5

While the laksa simmers, pop the cornflour, lime zest and Thai style spice blend in a bowl. Season with lots of salt and black pepper. Add the tofu to the bowl and toss with the cornflour until evenly coated. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on high heat. Once hot, fry the tofu until slightly crispy, 8-10 mins. Turn frequently to ensure they brown evenly, then remove from the heat.

Assemble and Serve
6

When the laksa has thickened, stir in the cooked noodles and heat through, 1 min. Remove from the heat and add half the lime juice. Taste and add more salt, pepper, lime juice or sugar if needed. Serve immediately in big bowls topped with the crispy tofu and remaining spring onion. Cut any remaining lime into wedges and serve alongside. Enjoy!
