For the sauce
- 3 tbsp tamarind paste
- 3 tbsp tamari
- 2 tbsp coconut sugar
- 1 tbsp vegan fish sauce
- 1 tsp sriracha
For the stir-fry
- 14 oz block extra-firm tofu, pressed and cut into ¾-inch cubes
- 3 tbsp neutral oil (such as avocado oil or canola oil), divided
- 4 scallions, white and light green parts thinly sliced, dark green tops reserved for garnish

Instructions
- 1
Place the rice noodles in a large bowl and cover with room-temperature water. Soak for 15 minutes, until pliable and just barely flexible but still firm — they will finish cooking in the wok. Drain and set aside.
- 2
Whisk together the tamarind paste, tamari, coconut sugar, vegan fish sauce, and sriracha in a small bowl until the sugar dissolves. Set aside.
