How to make tofu stir fry noodles

The first step is to drain and press the tofu.

This will help remove excess water and allow for a crispier finished tofu.

After you press your tofu, dice it into chunks and toss with cornstarch.

Next, you will pan fry it for around 15 minutes, until browned on all sides.

Use a large skillet to cook your tofu in.

It should look like this once it is done!

Nice browned edges.

Try to make sure you flip the tofu so that every edge has a chance to get browned.

Texture is very important when cooking with tofu, and getting it some crisp will make all the difference!

Add in your fresh garlic and ginger (our key to big flavor), carrots, green onion, and peas to the same skillet as the tofu.

If you have never made stir fry with fresh ginger, it is a game changer.

Fresh minced garlic and ginger are what take your stir fry from ok to amazing flavor!

Cook until the veggies are cooked, but not soft or mushy, texture is important here.
