✨20-minute microwave curry pasta and air-fried tofu✨

I’ve been using a microwave to cook my pasta lately, especially on days when I want some sort of noodle but I don’t want to have a whole serving of noodles. So if I am going for pasta, I can decide how much noodles I want.

Plus, I’m using tofu and tempeh in this recipe, which is also contain some carbohydrates, so it just makes sense for me to go for a smaller amount of pasta for this meal.

Ingredients (serves 1)
200g tofu (cut into thin rectangle pieces)
20g tempeh (cut into thin strips, optional, I was trying to finish my leftover tempeh XD)
2 tsp oil

50g pasta
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 red chilli (minced)
1 shallots (thinly sliced)
2 tsp oil
2 pc long beans (~40g, cut into short strips)
40g frozen spinach
1 tbsp curry paste
A splash of water (optional)

Steps:
1. Add tofu and tempeh into an air fryer basket. Brush with a layer of oil. Air fry for 20 minutes at 180°C.
2. Add uncooked pasta into a microwaveable dish. Add water to cover the pasta. Cover the dish, microwave at high power for 6-7 minutes, or until pasta is 80% cooked.
3. Drain the pasta water. Add cooked pasta back to the same dish.
4. Add minced garlic, red chilli, shallots and oil to the same dish. Stir to mix well. Leave the dish uncovered, microwave at high power for 1 minute.
5. Cover the dish, microwave at high power for another minute.
6. Add long beans, frozen spinach and curry paste. Stir to mix well. Add a splash of water if you think it’s too dry. Cover the dish, microwave at high power for 2-3 minutes.
7. Once long beans are cooked to your liking, add air fried tofu from step 1 to the dish. Stir to mix well. Enjoy!

Tips:
1. You can use cabbage, okra, cauliflower florets if you don’t have long beans in your fridge.
2. Try the curry paste before you use it to gauge the saltiness. Adjust the amount of curry paste accordingly.
