Chile-Peanut Tofu
Ingredients
How to Cook
Prepare the vegetables: Heat the oven to 400ºF. Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil for the ramen noodles. Trim and cut the scallions into 2 inch pieces.

Roast the eggplant: Return all of the eggplant and the chopped scallions to the skillet and transfer the skillet to the oven. Roast until the eggplant is lightly browned and tender about 8 to 10 minutes.
Cook the noodles: Once the water is boiling, add the fresh ramen noodles and chopped Swiss chard leaves and stems and cook until the noodles are just al dente, about 1 to 2 minutes. Drain the noodles and greens and return to the saucepan, off of the heat. Toss with the white vinegar, sesame seeds,
Finish the eggplant: Once the eggplant is finished, remove it from the oven and drizzle with the peanut sauce.
Serve: Divide the fresh noodles and greens between large bowls. Top with the pan roasted eggplant and as much of the chile garlic sauce as you’d like.
