Cooking Instructions:

BEFORE COOKING:

Bring a pot of water to the boil over a high heat.
1. TO COOK THE SOBA NOODLES AND PREPARE THE VEGETABLES:

Once the water is boiling add the soba noodles to the pot and cook for 4-5 mins. Drain into a colander, rinse with cold water and allow to drain well. Peel the carrot and make ribbons by pulling a peeler the full length along the carrot, rotating after each peel.
2. TO COOK THE CHARRED EDAMAME AND SOBA:

Place a non-stick pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Add the edamame and cook for 4-5 mins stirring occasionally to create a char. Add the carrot and sliced red cabbage to the pan and cook for 1 min then remove from the pan into a salad bowl. Add the soba noodle to the bowl with the creamy sesame dressing, gently toss to combine and cover to keep warm.
3. TO COOK THE TOFU:

Place a non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot add the sweet Thai chilli tofu cubes to the pan, reserving the marinade and cook for 2-3 mins on each side. Pour over the reserved marinade, season with salt and remove from the pan.
TO SERVE:

Place the sesame soba noodles, charred edamame and vegetables into bowls. Top with sweet Thai chilli tofu and sprinkle over toasted cashew nuts.
