Pork and Tofu Noodles are a fantastic option for a weeknight dinner, combining lean pork with fragrant ginger and garlic. This dish is a low-carb favorite, featuring only 3 grams of carbs per serving thanks to the tofu noodles. The blend of sesame oil and five spice powder infuses each bite with warmth, making it perfect for meal prep or cozy family dinners. While enjoying these noodles, remember that low-carb eating can support metabolic health and may lead to changes in medication dependency when working with your care team.
Instructions
- Mix the sesame oil, five spice powder, and cut up pork in a bowl and let it sit together for about ten minutes.
- Heat a pot to medium-high. Add the pork. Cook the pork bits just until the pieces are no longer pink and then remove them from the pot. You’ll be returning them to the pot soon, so don’t worry about them being undercooked.
- Add the canola oil, ginger, and garlic to the pan and let them get fragrant and a little toastes, about 2 minutes. Add the soy sauces, Shaoxing wine, water, tofu noodles, and the pork. Stir everything around until it is mixed, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cover. Let this simmer for 10 minutes.
- Taste the tofu and add salt as needed. Serve immediately.
