- 3 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 ½ tablespoon sesame oil
- 3 garlic crushed, cloves

- 300 gr rice noodles

Instructions
- Prepare the sauce, mixing the soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, maple syrup, garlic powder, lime juice and sesame seeds.
- Leave the rice noodles soaking in warm water following the packet instructions. When they are ready, rinse the noodles with cold water. You want the noodles to be still a bit chewy as they will finish cooking in the pan
- For the shiitake stock, add in a small pan, add 1 ½ cup of water and 4-5 dried shiitake mushrooms. Bring to boil and leave it simmering for 15 minutes.
- Heat some oil in a pan and add the ginger, chillis and onion. Cook for a few minutes and then add the tofu and the shiitake mushrooms thinly sliced.
- When the tofu starts to golden, pour the shiitake stock into the pan and add the sauce. Quickly add the noodles and the Thai basil, turn the heat to high, stir for 3-4 minutes, adjust with salt and serve!
