Heat your olive oil at medium health in a large frying pan and pan fry your tofu. You will need to cook it for 2-3 minutes each side
Remove from the heat and cut into squares
Add it back to the pan to brown all the sides of your squares
In the meantime mix in a bowl the garlic, coconut sauce, coconut sugar, and lime juice
Add the rice noodles into the pan with the tofu and mixed sauce. Mix well with a large wooden spoon to coat noodles. Be sure not to break them apart
At this point add your spinach and cashews and mix well
1 TBSP of water at a time now to allow the noodles to cook all the way through and not stick together
Continue add water, 1 TBSP at a time if you find that the noodles are not cooking all the way through
Remove from heat, top with green onion, black sesame seeds, and more cashews
Enjoy!
Notes
Always check the package directions for how to cook the rice noodles before you begin. They all vary depending on the brand
Add your favourite vegetables to this dish
If using broccoli or bok choy, you will need to cook those vegetables first
You can use peanuts instead of cashews
Feel free to add sriracha in the sauce mixture if you want it a bit spicy!
