Homemade Vegan takeout recipes are seriously the best recipes. This super easy sauce teriyaki noodles recipe is my FAVORITE go to recipe when I’m looking for a quick lunch or dinner. It’s the easiest dish to put together and tastes so.damn.good.
What are the best noodles to use?
You can really use any noodles of your choice. I personally really enjoy ramen noodles with this recipe, it just makes it taste even better. There are TONS of gluten free ramen noodles out there too. I used Rice Ramen from Lotus foods.
Do I have to use tofu?
Nope, you can use any meat substitute of your choice – soy curls would be just as good for this recipe. You can also customize it with all the veggies of your choice.
What kind of tofu should I use?
Whenever you are baking tofu, you want to make sure you use extra firm tofu. You also want to make sure you are pressing your tofu PRIOR to cutting – this removes all the extra moisture and will make sure the tofu is nice and crispy when you bake it.

Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 425º and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Using either a tofu press or a heavy object, press tofu to remove all the excess moisture and then cut it into bite sized cubes - transfer to a bowl.
-
To the tofu, add the garlic, chili paste, and Tamari - mix well to coat evenly. Add the corn starch and gently mix to make sure everything is well combined.
-
Transfer the tofu to the baking sheet on an even single layer - bake for 20-25 minutes or until the tofu is nice and crispy.
-
Start preparing your noodles according the package instructions.
-
In a medium saucepan, sauté the ginger and garlic for 1-2 minutes. As soon as it starts to stick and turn brown, add the water, Tamari, chili paste, vinegar, and coconut sugar. Bring to a boil and let it simmer for 2-4 minutes.
-
Add in your corn starch slurry and mix right away to avoid any lumps forming. Simmer until the sauce begins to thicken. You want a slightly thick consistency, but thin enough to pour and for the noodles to be saucy.
-
In a skillet add the cooked noodles, baked tofu, veggies of your choice, and pour the sauce directly over. Toss to make sure everything is well combined.
-
Garnish with green scallions and enjoy.
