Food for thought (and aikido)

So what do you eat in that short gap between aikido and sleep …?

If you have any quick meal ideas with a Japanese twist please email them to sophie_harle@hotmail.com – and we’ll post them on the blog – or perhaps put them together in an aikido inspired cookbook!!!

My personal favourite is …

Super fast Japanese Inspired Udon Noodles

1 zucchini sliced
3 mushrooms
half a broccoli
and some tofu, cashews or other protein related goodness

Fried up super fast in a little oil

Throw in some of those udon noodles (obento?) once the vegies are cooked

While this is happening mix up the sauce in a cup using
3 tbs soya sauce
2 tbs brown sugar
A knob of ginger grated with a fancy Japanese grater and the juice squeezed into the sauce (discarding the non juice part)
½ cup of water

Add the sauce in right at the end – giving it a good stir and letting it bubble away and soak into the noodles

Delicious, nutritious and ready in 10 minutes
