Tempehtion

Afew minutes of prep for a whole lot of pleasure! This is my almost instant take on the Vietnamese noodle soup and it’s a total slurp-fest; you just need to add boiling water. In seconds you’ll have a spiced broth with fresh aromatic herbs and veges. Call your boss into the break room and tell them to watch you prepare it in literally minutes; if they don’t immediately give you employee of the month for this innovation, it’s time to walk. You’re a lunch-break genius and you deserve to be applauded!

PHO IN A FLASH

1 small carrot
3 slices of tofu, or 25g soy chunks
