Ahh, the Copenhagen Jazz Festival; a 9-day event that involves 1000s of artists from all around the world playing at hundreds of indoor and outdoor venues across the city. It gives you the chance to see so many areas of Copenhagen and is likened to a glorified pub-crawl with the exception of that the music is at the center of attention.

A trendy food market has sprung up in the old meat packing district (Kødbyens Mad & Marked)of Copenhagen which serves as a hip new summer hang-out for tourists and an all year social spot for residents alike. It was there that we came across an Asian food stall that rocked our socks off with this delicious vegetarian noodle salad. A simple meal and sauce recipe that we noted down and would like to share with the Steemit community.

Ingredients

Bowl

2 egg noodle blocks
Half a Cucumber
2 Carrots
10cm of Radish (a cucumber size equivalent radish)
1 Paprika
1 marinated Tofu (270 grams)

Sauce

3 tablespoons of tahini
1 tablespoon of sesame oil
2 tablespoons of light soy sauce
2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon of honey
Sriracha hot sauce, (as much as you can handle)
Water (to help blend the ingredients)

Topping

sesame seeds
pumpkin seeds
seaweed

Recipe

Boil the egg noodles and let cool. Cut the mentioned vegetables (or whatever you have at home) into thin strips. Cut the marinated tofu into cubes. As a recommended alternative protein source, you could also use boiled scrambled eggs with fried mushrooms.

Create your bowl with noodles, vegetables, and protein.

To make the sauce add the ingredients. Shake it for quite some time so it gets creamy in a bottle then add some water until it has a syrupy texture.

Add a lot of sauce to the noodles and tofu in a deep bowl and top with sesame seeds, pumpkin seeds, seaweed.

Enjoy!

By the way folks the Copenhagen Jazz Festival is a place to be!

Mr Funky, looks like a very good recipe to me but picture shows sprouts instead of noodles and is not mixed up like recipe dictates. A bit of freedim to the reader?

Thanks bubke, the noodles are actually underneath all that goodness sitting on top. The sprouts are an extra! I thought this would give people an inspiration to add their choice of extra ingredients to their bowl ;-)

That looks really delicious. During my Israel visit I came across a number of really tasty bowl dish ideas. This is getting added to my list.

Great stuff! Hope it tastes great for you!

That sounds like the most amazing weekend - what a very cool place to be. And that salad is soooo colourful (must DuckDuckGo Sriracha sauce, too - never heard of that). Yum!

I can highly recommend the festival healingherb! Where are you based?
