Ingredients

  • 12 pkg (14 oz/400 g) vermicelli rice noodles
  • 8 cups boiling water
  • 1 lime
  • 12 tbsp Greek Dressing Mix, or Dressing Mix of your choice
  • 1 tbsp each liquid honey and sesame oil
  • 1 bunch radishes
  • 2 carrots
  • 1 English cucumber
  • 2 blocks (7 oz/210 g each) smoked tofu

Preparation

  1. In a large bowl, combine rice noodles and boiling water. Ensure noodles are completely submerged—add more boiling water as needed. Every couple of minutes, give the noodles a stir to ensure they are evenly cooked. Noodles take approximately 6 min to cook until tender, then drain and rinse under cold water.
  2. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, make dressing. Using 2-in-1 Citrus Press, squeeze in juice from 1 lime. Whisk in dressing mix, honey, and oil.
  3. Slice radishes into thin rounds. Grate carrots. Slice cucumber in half, lengthwise. Use a spoon to scrape out seeds (save for a smoothie!). Slice halves cross-wise. Cube tofu.
  4. Divide noodles, veggies and tofu between four bowls. Drizzle dressing on top.

Tips

Smoked tofu is very firm and has a smoky flavour; it can be eaten uncooked or cooked. If you’re feeling fancy, make ribbons. Simply fit the 4-in-1 Mandoline with the 3.5 mm slicer plate and slice the tofu into thin strips.
