- Set the BBQ to a medium-high direct heat. Cook the noodles in a medium pan of boiling water for 2-3 mins until tender, then drain, run under cold water and set aside.
- Cut the tofu into 8 slices. Put the chilli purée, lime zest and juice, vegetable oil and garlic in a medium mixing bowl, then add the tofu and allow to marinate for 30 mins.
- Meanwhile, put the remaining ingredients in a large mixing bowl, cover and set aside.
- Lift the tofu out of the marinade (reserve the marinade) and grill for 3-4 mins each side until charred. Slice the tofu into bite-sized cubes. Add 2 tbsp water to the remaining marinade then toss through the noodles and vegetables. Serve topped with the tofu.
- Tip: To cook indoors, heat a griddle pan until just smoking and follow the BBQ timings.
