Pad Se Ew Tofu with Vegetable Noodles
- Prepare Tofu:
- Heat oil in a deep fryer (or large pot) to 375°F (190°C).
- First batch: Deep-fry 1 package cubed tofu until crispy and golden (they’ll shrink slightly). Remove and drain on a prepared tray.
- Second batch: Fry the second package until just golden and seared, then set aside.
- Heat the Wok:
- Preheat a wok over medium-high heat until very hot, just before it starts to smoke. Add 1 tablespoon oil and swirl to coat. (Adding oil to a hot wok prevents it from absorbing too much oil.)
- Cook Aromatics and Eggs:
- Add 2 cloves garlic (minced), stirring constantly to prevent burning.
- Crack in 2 eggs and stir quickly to scramble.
- Add Vegetables:
- Start with broccoli florets (they take longest to cook), followed by other mixed vegetables of your choice. Keep the food moving with quick, swirling motions for even cooking.
- Add Sauces and Seasonings:
- Pour in 1 tablespoon each of oyster sauce, soy sauce, and dark soy sauce, along with 1 teaspoon fermented beans, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1 teaspoon vinegar, and a pinch of white pepper. Stir everything to coat the vegetables, but keep them crisp—don’t overcook!
- Add Noodles and Tofu:
- Toss in cooked noodles and stir to combine.
- Finally, add the crispy tofu and gently fold it in, just to warm and coat with the seasonings.
