Instructions
Press and drain the block of tofu (or pat dry thoroughly with a dish towel). Coat the block of tofu with the starch.
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the oil, followed by the block of tofu. Pan fry for 5 minutes, flip the tofu and pan fry for 5 minutes longer, or until the tofu is firm and beginning to turn golden. Set the tofu aside.
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
In a small bowl, combine the coconut aminos, garlic, sriracha, sugar, vinegar, ginger, sesame oil, pepper and salt. Whisk well.
In a large baking dish (9" x 13" casserole dish or similar), place the two noodle nests. Place the pan-fried tofu on top of the noodles.
Pour the sauce mixture over the tofu noodles.
Pour the water into the bottom of the pan.
Bake for 25 minutes, or until the noodles are tender and the tofu is crisp and golden. (If the noodles seem too dry, add a little bit more water and bake for a few minutes longer until the noodles are to your liking.)
Remove the tofu and slice into any shapes of choice. To serve, place some noodles in a bowl, followed by some tofu. Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro and chiles. Enjoy!
