  • 2 tsp of marmite

Method

3 steps
  1. Step 1

    Gently coat the tofu in the cornflour and set aside. Mix together the Marmite, soy sauce, sesame oil and agave – season with salt, or add a pinch of garlic salt. Set aside.

  2. Step 2

    Heat a little oil in a wok or large frying pan and fry the tofu for 5 mins, or until slightly golden and crispy, turning so that it colours on all sides.

  3. Step 3

    Add the Marmite mixture and stir to coat the tofu. Let the sauce bubble, add the Tenderstem® and sugar snap peas and cook for 3 mins. Add the noodles or rice to heat through, sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds, and serve.
