Once noodles cooked (about 6-7minutes) - remove noodles with tongs into a strainer. DO NOT LOOSE THE WATER - YOU NEED THIS!

In the remaining water add your stock, ground ginger, soy sauce, crushed garlic, salt and pepper and simmer for 5 minutes. Make sure there's enough broth for 2 people . If not, add more water.

Remove the tofu, coat in extra oil, turn and place back in oven for a further 5-8 minutes. If you need to pre cook your greens, do this now.
