The marinade is what makes the Chinese Barbequed Tofu with Sesame Noodles a super-duper hit! With a choice combination of sauces and spices, the marinade gives the tofu an irresistible flavour and unbeatable aroma,
especially after being cooked in sesame oil.
Together with a few well-chosen veggies, perfectly-cooked noodles, crunchy and aromatic sesame seeds, the tofu gradually transforms into a sumptuous treat that delights your taste buds.
