Traditional pho rice noodles (dry weight)56.8 g
Tamarind paste40g
Avocado oil15.6 g
Spring onions, sliced25g
Carrots, julienned50g
Chia seeds, for garnish12g

Instructions

1

Soak the rice noodles in warm water for 20 minutes until pliable but firm (al dente). Drain and set aside.

2

In a small bowl, whisk the tamarind paste with a splash of water and a dash of chili to create a zesty, glossy glaze.

3

Heat 10g of avocado oil in a wok or heavy-bottomed skillet over high heat. Add the seitan chunks and sear until they are deeply golden and crisp at the edges.

4

Add the julienned carrots and white parts of the spring onions. Stir-fry for 2 minutes until the vegetables are vibrant and tender-crisp.

5

Toss in the drained noodles and the tamarind glaze. Use tongs to vigorously fold the ingredients together, ensuring the noodles are evenly coated and sizzling in the pan.

6

Once the noodles have absorbed the sauce and become glossy and translucent, remove from heat.

7

Plate in a shallow bowl, garnishing with the remaining fresh spring onion tops and a generous sprinkling of chia seeds for a nutty, satisfying crunch.
