Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a jar, whisk together the water, liquid soy seasoning, arrowroot powder, minced ginger, and crushed garlic. Set this flavorful glaze aside. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

02

Step
30 mins

Press the tofu: Line a plate with paper towels, place the tofu on top, and cover with another layer of paper towels. Place a cutting board on top and weigh it down with a heavy pot or several cans. Press for at least 30 minutes, replacing the paper towels as needed to remove excess moisture. This step is crucial for achieving a delightful golden crisp on the tofu. (Prep time: 30 minutes)

03

Step
20 mins

Soak the noodles: Place the rice noodles in a large bowl and cover them with cold water. Let them soak until pliable, about 15-20 minutes. Once the tofu is pressed, cut it into ½-inch cubes. (Prep time: 20 minutes)

04

Step
9 mins

Heat a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add the avocado oil. Once the oil is shimmering, add the cubed tofu and stir-fry until golden brown on all sides, approximately 5 minutes. Add the chopped portabello and sliced cremini mushrooms and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Incorporate the thinly sliced red bell pepper and white onion, and stir-fry for another 2 minutes, until slightly softened. (Cook time: 9 minutes)

05

Step
2 mins

Pour the prepared glaze over the stir-fry and cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and coats all the ingredients, about 2 minutes. (Cook time: 2 minutes)

06

Step
3 mins

Drain the rice noodles thoroughly, shaking off any excess water. Add the noodles to the wok and stir-fry until everything is heated through and the noodles are evenly coated with the sauce, about 3 minutes. Serve immediately and enjoy! (Cook time: 3 minutes)

For extra flavor, marinate the tofu in a tablespoon of the soy seasoning for at least 15 minutes before pressing.
Feel free to substitute other vegetables, such as broccoli florets, snap peas, or carrots.
If you don't have arrowroot powder, cornstarch can be used as a substitute.
Adjust the amount of liquid soy seasoning to your preference. Taste and add more for a saltier flavor.

    So easy and delicious! I didn't have arrowroot powder, so I used cornstarch, and it worked perfectly fine.

  • Nicholas Hilpert

    I've made this several times now, and it's always a hit. Pressing the tofu is definitely worth the effort!

    This recipe is fantastic! The glaze is what really makes it special. I added some snow peas for extra crunch.
