Cooking Steps
- Before starting, to a large pot, add 10 cups water and 2 tsp salt (use same for 4 servings). Cover and bring to a boil over high.
- Wash and dry all produce.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
- While the pan heats, pat tofu dry with paper towels. Using a fork, poke tofu all over, then cut into 1-inch pieces. Season with salt and pepper Cream Sauce Spice Blend. Toss to coat.
- When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then tofu. Cook for 6-7 min, turning occasionally, until crispy and browned all over.
- Transfer tofu to a plate.
- Reduce heat to medium-high. To the same pan, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, cabbage and carrots.
- Cook for 2-3 min, stirring often, until tender.
- Remove from heat, then transfer veggies to the plate with tofu. Cover to keep warm.
- Meanwhile, to the boiling water, add chow mein noodles. Cook uncovered for 1-2 min, until tender.
- Drain noodles, then rinse under warm water.
- Return noodles to the same pot, off heat. Add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then gently toss to coat.
- Use a pair of scissors to make a few snips in the pot to cut up noodles.
- To the same pan (from step 2), add soy sauce mirin blend, hoisin sauce, ginger-garlic puree and 1/2 cup (1 cup) water.
- Bring to a simmer over medium-high. Add tofu and veggies. Cook for 2-3 min, until slightly thickened.
- To the pot with noodles, add sauce mixture.
- Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine. (TIP: If you prefer a lighter sauce, add more water, 1-2 tbsp at a time.)
- Divide tofu chow mein between plates.
- Drizzle as much sweet chili sauce over top as you like.
- Snip green onion over top.
- Sprinkle crispy shallots over top.
If you've opted to get tofu, heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high. While the pan heats, pat tofu dry with paper towels. Using a fork, poke tofu all over, then cut into 1-inch pieces. Season with salt and pepper Cream Sauce Spice Blend. Toss to coat. When the pan is hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, then tofu. Cook for 6-7 min, turning occasionally, until crispy and browned all over.

Updated on Feb 2026- Flavor: Customers enjoyed this dish, with one calling it their favorite recipe. Some found the overall flavor lacking, however.
- Ease of prep: The sauce may be too runny; consider reducing or omitting the added water for a thicker consistency.
- Suggestions: For extra variety, try adding sliced water chestnuts and edamame to the dish.
- Portions: Some felt the vegetable quantity was insufficient; consider adding more cabbage and carrots.
- Tofu: Cook the tofu thoroughly to avoid sogginess; ensure it's crispy and well-browned before adding to the dish.
