20 Minutes tofu lo mein, Secret revealed

November 25, 2017 By admin Leave a Comment

Tofu lo mein – These three words may be surprising for some people who never heard about tofu or lo mein. Even many unfortunate people do not know about lo mein. So I can not ask them whether they have tried these at all or not, haha. It will be silly if I ask them such question. But you do not belong to that category and that is why you have landed on this page. You definitely have tried this at a restaurant or somebody offered you when you visited their house.

Whatever the reason but truth is YOU LIKED THIS UTTERLY DELICIOUS TOFU LO MEIN, this is the whole truth & nothing but the truth. Your other claims are no longer valid, Like,

I do not like noodles

I do not prefer tofu in noodles

Lo mein is not something what I am looking for

Taste of tofu is not so good 

All these are absolutely wrong and your deliberate attempt to say a LIE. All those are lies because you enjoyed tofu lo mein whenever last time you had it. Is it not true? Otherwise, you won’t be here and read this post till now.

Though I have not tried tofu lo mein so many times but each time I enjoyed this wonderful meal. Yes, it is a perfect meal to me because I can add various seasonal vegetables along with tofu. So I tried this three or four times at our own kitchen with various ways and this time I found it most delicious and worth to share with you. But tofu is not available in every shop because in Kolkata mostly people prefer Paneer and I believe only a few people have heard about tofu, haha. So only one or two departmental stores keep those for their customers. I purchased my tofu from Reliance fresh store and I can still remember from first time to recent time, every time I bought it from that store only.

Tofu is here (kolkata, India) often known as soy milk paneer (or vegan paneer) because everybody eats paneer but when it comes to tofu, people become clueless. Very rare restaurants offer any dishes with tofu too. So if I want to have tofu lo mein or anything based on tofu then I have to prepare it at my own kitchen. I have also made vegetable lo-mein a few days back and the result of that attempt motivate me to try tofu lo mein at my own kitchen for multiple times till I feel, “Yes, this is what I am looking for“.

I have also do a lot of experiments on instant noodles to experience childhood fun once again and the outcome of such things are cheese Maggi, butter Maggi etc.

This tofu lo mein made my evening happy because of its mouthwatering appearance, taste, color & flavor. It is truly the secret behind happy family dinner. You can even follow instructions to cook tofu as mentioned on the label on tofu package, add seasonal vegetables and cook. Then add cooked lo mein noodles and toss to mix. But for better taste according to you, it is always advised to do your own experiment to have the best for your dinner.
