Instructions

For the Tofu-

  1. Drain the tofu and press for 20 minutes.
  2. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  3. After the tofu has finished being pressed, cut into cubes.
  4. Place tofu cubes into a large bowl and coat with oil and cornstarch (just enough to evenly coat all of the cubes) and stir.
  5. Put the tofu cubes onto a baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes.
  6. Flip the tofu cubes and continue baking for another 15-20 minutes, until they have browned and are crispy.

For the Sauce-

  1. Place all of the ingredients into a small bowl, or a large measuring cup.
  2. Whisk until all of the ingredients are combined/dissolved.

For the Main Dish-

  1. Try to prep as much beforehand as possible. Make sure all the veggies are chopped and ready to go, make sure the tofu and the sauce are made.
  2. Once everything is ready, go ahead and cook the noodles according to package instructions.
  3. Once the noodles have finished cooking, drain and add some oil on the noodles and stir. This will ensure that the noodles do not harden and stay fresh.
  4. Over medium-high heat, on an oiled skillet, sauté the broccoli, peppers, and onions until the onions are translucent and the broccoli is tender, roughly 5-10 minutes.
  5. Push the veggies to the side of the skillet and scramble the egg(s) in the same skillet.
  6. Once the eggs are cooked, mix them in with the veggies.
  7. Put the garlic, bean sprouts, and the basil in the skillet, stir, and cook for 1 more minute.

Assembly-

  1. Once everything has cooked, place the noodles, tofu, and the sauce together, either in the skillet if big enough, or the large pot where the noodles were cooked, and combine everything together.
  2. Serve warm and enjoy!!
