Recipe Card

ingredients

  • 1 16 ounce package extra-firm organic tofu
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon dark soy sauce
  • 1 package of rice noodles
  • 2 medium carrots, thinly sliced
  • 1/3 cup chopped scallions
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons maple syrup
  • 2 tablespoons chili garlic sauce
  • 2 teaspoons corn starch
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/2 cup vegetable broth
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil

Method

  • Step 1

    Cook your noodles according to package directions and rinse (be sure to not overcook them). Drizzle in a touch of sesame oil and gently toss (optional).

  • Step 2

    Meanwhile, drain the tofu very well, and crumble it into a large pan. The smaller the crumbles, the firmer / crisper they will get during cooking.

  • Step 3

    Add a bit of oil and cook for 20 min on medium heat, stirring periodically. Towards the end, add around a tsp of dark soy sauce (or sub regular soy sauce).

  • Step 4

    While tofu and noodles cook, thinly slice the carrots. Add them to the tofu pan when tofu is done. Continue to cook for a couple min while you whisk up the sauce.

  • Step 5

    Add sauce to the pan, cook until it starts to thicken. While sauce is thickening, chop the scallions and herbs.

  • Step 6

    Now add the cooked noodles to pan, toss, serve and top with scallions and herbs.
