In the Caribbean, green, semi-ripe man goes add an incomparable depth of flavor to many dishes. Here, they are combined with bell peppers, mushrooms and tofu for a flavorful stir-fry that is served over noodles.

In large saucepan, bring 3 quarts of water to boil. When water boils, add noodles stirring to prevent sticking. Cook until al dente, stirring occasionally, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain.

Meanwhile, in large skillet or wok, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add bell peppers, mushrooms and garlic and stir-fry until vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Add broccoli, mango and tofu and stir-fry 4 minutes. Stir in vegetable stock, pineapple juice, soy sauce and sesame oil and bring to simmer. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, until sauce has thickened, 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low and blend in peanut butter.

Transfer noodles to serving plates and spoon mango and vegetable mixture over top. Serve right away.
