Vegan Dinner Recipe: Pad-Thai, sort of

You know that bit in Hitch-hiker's guide to the galaxy, where Arthur keeps trying to get a cup of tea from the machine on that improbability space craft and it keeps on giving him 'something that is almost entirely, but not quite, exactly unlike tea'? This is my 'something that is almost entirely, but not quite, exactly unlike Pad-Thai'.

I love a good stir-fry, but I generally get the hankering for one right before I make dinner, so there isn't time to pre-plan it shopping-wise. So tonight I got together all the bits and pieces I had that seemed appropriate and made the closest approximation to Pad-Thai that I could. And it tasted AMAZING. So I'm passing on the recipe to you guys. Don't say I don't do anything for you!

Vegan Dinner Recipe: Asian-Fusion-Udon-Noodles

Okay, today has been NO FUN. Left house at 6:15. Arrived at work and tried to re-assemble dismantled bits of coffee machine. Failed. FAILED. Had to call in re-enforcements who brought chocolate to me on their day off. Ate chocolate (obviously). It was a cheeky little dark Italian number and improved my day somewhat. Left work covered in coffee, went straight to a uni tutorial.

So basically I got home at five o'clock with a MASSIVE headache, feeling like I needed something more nutritious than chocolate, something full of tasty goodness, and something I could cook that didn't involve being in the kitchen for longer than half an hour.

Enter the Asian Fusion Udon extravaganza.
