Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Soak the Rice Noodles

    Place the rice noodles in a large bowl and cover with hot water. Let them soak for about 10-15 minutes, or until they are tender. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Protein

    If using tofu, press it to remove excess moisture, then cut it into bite-sized cubes. If using tempeh, slice it thinly.

  3. 3

    Chop the Vegetables

    Slice the bell pepper, julienne the carrot, and prepare the broccoli florets and snow peas. Slice the green onions and set aside.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Cook the Protein

    In a large skillet or wok, heat a tablespoon of sesame oil over medium-high heat. Add the soy protein (tofu or tempeh) and cook until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

  2. 5

    Stir-Fry the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the bell pepper, carrot, broccoli, and snow peas. Stir-fry for about 5 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.

  3. 6

    Combine Everything

    Add the drained rice noodles, cooked soy protein, and all the sauce ingredients (soy sauce, oyster sauce, Sriracha, and brown sugar) to the skillet. Toss everything together and cook for another 2-3 minutes until heated through.

Serving

  1. 7

    Garnish and Serve

    Serve the drunken noodle hot, garnished with fresh cilantro and lime wedges on the side.
