  • Place noodles in a bowl and pour in enough boiling water to cover; soak until softened, about 3 minutes. Drain.

  • Combine water, sriracha, soy sauce, sugar, tamarind concentrate, and red pepper flakes in a saucepan over low heat. Cook and stir sauce until flavors blend, about 5 minutes.

  • Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Add tofu, noodles, and sliced onion; cook and stir until tofu is golden brown; about 3 minutes. Stir in sauce gradually until noodles are well-coated.

  • Push noodle mixture to one side of the wok. Crack egg onto opposite side of wok; stir until beginning to set, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Stir egg into noodles gently. Garnish with green onions, peanuts, and lime wedges.

Great recipe. I was a little skeptical about the amount of sauce thinking it might make the noodles soggy but somehow this worked. I didn't end up adding as much of the sauce at the end but rather went by taste. Also I accidently cooked my noodles in the hot water step longer than 3 min so this would probably account for less sauce being needed. Overall great taste! I will make this again for sure.
