    Categories: Pasta   
         Yield: 4 Servings   
       
         2 cl Garlic; crushed   
         2 sm Fresh hot chile; seeded   
              - (optional)   
       1/2 c  Unsalted peanuts;   
              - dry roasted   
         1 ts Fresh ginger; grated   
     1 1/2 c  Fresh ciantro, mint, or   
              - Thai basil;   
              - loosely packed   
       1/2 c  Fresh parsley leaves;   
              - loosely packed   
         2 tb Toasted sesame oil   
         1 tb Neutral vegetable oil   
         8 oz Extra-firm tofu;   
              - drained & diced 1/2"   
         1 lb Rice noodles; fresh or dried   
       
     In a food processor, combine the garlic, chile (if using), peanuts,   
     and ginger, and process until minced. Add the cilantro and parsley   
     and process into a paste. With the machine running, add the sesame   
     oil through the feed tube and process until smooth. Set aside.   
        
     Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add   
     the tofu and cook until golden brown all over, about 5 minutes.   
     Sprinkle with the tamari, tossing to coat. Reuce the heat to low and   
     keep warm.   
        
     Prepare the rice noodles. If fresh, rinse under very hot water and   
     place in a large, shallow serving bowl, separating them into   
     individual strands. If dried, plunge into a large pot of boiling   
     water to soften. Drain and place in a large, shallow serving bowl.   
     Toss the noodles with the pesto to coat evenly. Top with tofu and   
     serve hot.
