Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients

7 ounces brown rice noodles
1 14 oz package tofu
1 tablespoon olive oil for sautéing
3-4 cup chopped vegetables (I used a pre-chopped fresh stir fry mix)
2 cloves minced garlic
peanuts, cilantro, and lime for serving
1/4 cup soy sauce
2-3 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 cup water
2-3 tablespoons white vinegar

Method

SAUCE: Whisk soy sauce, brown sugar, water, and white vinegar together in a bowl until smooth.
NOODLES: Soak brown rice noodles in a bowl of warm water according to package directions until tender.
TOFU: Press tofu to remove excess water, then cut into cubes. Fry tofu in a nonstick skillet with olive oil over medium-high heat until golden brown. Add a little sauce to get a nice browned crust. Transfer to a bowl.
VEGGIES: In the same pan, add chopped vegetables and minced garlic with a little more olive oil. Stir fry over medium-high heat until tender-crisp.
COMBINE: Add the cooked noodles and fried tofu to the pan with the vegetables. Pour the prepared sauce over everything.
TOSS & SERVE: Toss gently to coat all ingredients with the sauce. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until heated through. Serve immediately, garnished with peanuts, cilantro, and lime wedges.

Notes

– Pressing the tofu is key for achieving a crispy exterior.
– Don’t overcook the vegetables; they should remain tender-crisp.
– Adjust the sauce to your preference by adding more sugar for sweetness or vinegar for tang.
