I always buy bok choy  but I never have a use for it, it is just one of those veg that lay in the fridge till it gets frost bite and then gets chucked out and then I buy a pack again and history repeats itself.

I have always wanted to try tofu and after watching Mr Kitchen Rules where Joleen and Maj made a bowl meal that had tofu in and Joleen seemed to make using tofu seem super easy I was all game to try it out.

Of course I had to wait for a fasting day and also wait for my dad not to be in the kitchen before I whipped out the bean curd tofu. My mum loves tofu which is soo strange since she is the fussy eater out of all of us.

For a non veggie eater, I loved this dish, and the noodles, wow first time tasting udon noodles and loved it. I was also really surprised that there was udon noodles in my supermarket… it seemed like a foreign noodle but it just happened to be in mu little dorp of the world.
