Equipment
- Large Frying Pan
- Wok (Optional)
Ingredients
- 1 Package Extra Firm Tofu
- ¼ cup Low Sodium Soy Sauce
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 tablespoon Sesame Oil
- ¼ cup Rice Wine Vinegar
- 2 tablespoon Water
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
- ½ teaspoon Smoked Paprika
- 1 Package Microwaveable Udon Noodles
- ½ cup Bell Pepper diced
- ½ cup Broccoli diced
- ½ cup White Button Mushrooms diced
- ½ cup Water Chestnuts diced
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Sesame Seeds
- ¼ Cup Scallions
Instructions
- Wrap the tofu in a clean towel and press it for at least 30 minutes to remove excess water. Then, cut it into 1-inch squares.
- Mix the marinade ingredients in a small bowl. Soak the tofu cubes in the marinade, making sure they are evenly coated. Let them sit for at least 30 minutes.
- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and place the tofu cubes in a single layer, setting aside the leftover marinade. Fry each side for 1-2 minutes until golden and crispy.
- Remove the tofu from the skillet and set it aside.In the same skillet, add the chopped vegetables and cook for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.
- Prepare the noodles according to the package instructions.
- Mix 1 teaspoon of cornstarch into the remaining marinade.
- Remove the skillet from the heat. Add the cooked noodles, thickened marinade, and sautéed vegetables, mixing well to allow the cornstarch to thicken the sauce from the residual heat.
- Return the fried tofu to the skillet and gently mix to reheat the tofu.
- Serve the stir fry garnished with sesame seeds or scallions, as you like.
Notes
Opt for fresh mushrooms and clean them gently with a damp cloth instead of washing under water, which can cause them to absorb moisture and become soggy when cooked.
