Hot Asian Noodles With Tofu and Veggies

Submitted by lovetocook25

"not for the faint of palettes, this recipe is for only the true lovers of flavor and heat. i always love a spicy noodle dish, but no restaurant can get it hot enough for me,n so i played around and came up with this. if the sauce ever gets to thick, just add a little water. no worries it won't lose the kick. trust me on this! use lower heat or the aroma could make you cough a bit. also trust me on this! I like to serve soy sauce with this at the table. if you don't have or can't find egg noodles we use regular old linguine noodles. still delicious"
