Golden Tofu Noodle Bowl
A vibrant, 40-minute vegan rice noodle bowl with turmeric-coated tofu, crisp vegetables and a zesty maple-lime vegan nước chấm.
Fresh and brimming with crisp textures, this Vietnamese-style rice noodle bowl is inspired by bún chả, the pork and vermicelli dish from Hanoi. This vegan version offers golden cubes of turmeric-coated tofu, served with crunchy raw vegetables and a zesty dipping sauce. The sauce is a vegan take on the Vietnamese staple nước chấm sauce, relying upon lime, maple syrup, soy sauce and garlic to replicate the complex umami and signature sour-sweet-spicy notes of the original. Serve with the sauce on the side, so each person can dress the salad to their liking. Don't skimp on the herbs, as they add an essential herbal aroma to the dish.
