Vegan Rice Noodles a la Eric

Ingredients

1 package extra firm tofu, pressed and cubed

1 package thin rice noodles

Your choice of: 

baby corn, water chestnuts, sliced shitake mushrooms, bean sprouts, chinese broccoli, straw mushrooms

2 tbsp sesame oil

1/4 tsp onion powder

1 tbsp minced garlic

3/4 cup vegetable broth

2 tbs soy sauce

1 tsp sriracha sauce

Step 1: Fry cubed tofu in 1-1.5 tbs sesame oil for 8 mins over medium high heat, pressing down with a spatula regularly to push out any excess moisture. 

Step 2: Add veggies, soy sauce, garlic, onion powder, & sriracha sauce to pan. Fry 10 minutes. 

Step 3: While that is frying soak your rice noodles in hot water for 8 mins.

Step 4: Add vegetable broth and drained rice noodles to your fry pan. Add remaining 1/2 tablespoon sesame oil, mix well and fry until most of the vegetable broth has evaporated. 

Step 5: Toss and serve.

This is a recipe I stole  from my friend Eric and toyed with a bit. 

It is a new staple of mine: super quick and yummy. 

Many thanks Eric, you are a man of many talents. All of which I will steal.
