Soba Noodles with Chinese Vegetables in Ginger Garlic Sauce

This is a good one for busy nights! Keep some fresh ginger in the freezer and you will always have some ready for grating. (No need to thaw.)

I used two bundles of Soba noodles, a 10oz bag of frozen Chinese vegetable mix, two cloves of garlic, a teaspoon of ginger (pretty mild - add more if you like a gingery zing!) some soy sauce and a teaspoon or so of sesame oil. Add some diced Japanese tofu (Mori Nu) if you want protein.

Set the water to boil, and cook the noodles. Meanwhile, sautee the ginger and diced garlic in canola oil for a minute or two, then add the frozen veggies and cook lightly. Toss the cooked noodles with soy sauce and sesame oil, then add vegetables. Taste and add more soy, sesame oil, some hot chili paste, or pepper. Good hot, cold, or lukewarm.
