Tofu and Mushroom Laksa

One of the most authentic and traditional ingredients used in laksas are tofu puffs. These little sponges soak up all the delicious sauce, and are used by many different cultures throughout Asia in soups and stews for this very reason. In this recipe, the porous tofu releases the delicate flavours of the spiced coconut broth, complemented by the umami packed mushrooms, and crunchy edamame and broccoli making this one of the most delicious midweek meals which cooks in just 20 minutes.
