Ingredients
Creamy Soba Noodles
- 200 g soba noodles
- 1/4 cup tahini
- 2 tbsp tamari or soy sauce
- 1 1/2 tsp maple syrup
- 3 tbsp warm water to thin
- 1/4 tsp ground ginger
Garlic Broccoli
- 2 cups broccoli stems removed
- 1/4 cup tamari or soy sauce
- 2 cloves minced garlic
Garnishes
- 1/4 cup chopped almonds
- 1/4 cup chopped chives
- Extra tamari or soy sauce
- Red chili sauce or sriracha
Instructions
- Cook the soba noodles in boiling water according to box instructions. Meanwhile, make the sauce by whisking together all ingredients in a small bowl – tahini, tamari, rice wine vinegar, maple syrup, warm water, and ground ginger. Once the noodles are finished cooking, rinse them thoroughly and toss to coat with the sauce in a large bowl.
- Steam the broccoli for about 4-5 minutes until slightly soft, but still a bit tender. After finished cooking, toss the broccoli with the tamari and minced garlic to coat in a small bowl. Mix the broccoli into the soba noodles.
- Lastly, top the soba noodles with chopped almonds and chopped chives. Upon serving, garnish your plates with extra tamari and red chili sauce for extra flavor. Eat warm or cold and store leftovers in the fridge for 3-4 days. Enjoy!
