How to Prepare Japanese Pan Noodles With Healthier Homemade Teriyaki Sauce [Vegan]

To Make the Teriyaki Sauce:
  1. Add all ingredients except arrowroot powder/water in a small saucepan. Bring to a low boil, reduce heat to a simmer and add arrowroot dissolved in water. Simmer for about 5-10 minutes, until slightly thickened. Sauce will thicken a bit more as it cools.
To Make the Tofu or Tempeh:
  1. Preheat your oven or toaster oven to 375°F and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Heat about 2 teaspoons of coconut oil in your saute pan or wok over medium heat, add tofu cubes and pan fry, turning the cubes or gently shaking the pan to lightly brown each side, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add a couple of tablespoons of the teriyaki sauce and toss the cubes to coat them. Transfer the tofu cubes to the baking sheet and place in the oven while you prepare the noodles. The tofu will be firm and delightfully crisp on the edges by the time you’re ready to plate the noodles.
To Make the Pan-Fried Noodles:
  1. Heat the coconut oil over medium-high heat in a large wok or saute pan.
  2. Add mushrooms, broccoli, carrots, and ginger. Stir fry for 3-5 minutes.
  3. Add the noodles and the stir fry for a couple of minutes.
  4. Add the teriyaki sauce and continue to saute, coating veggies and noodles. Add the bean sprouts and toss. Remove from heat, plate, and top with optional ingredients.
