  5. Add soaked rice noodles and stir to evenly distribute all ingredients, then stir for 1-2 minutes to heat the noodles through.
  6. Add the sauce and stir to combine.
  7. Add the tofu, stir to incorporate, and remove the pan from the heat.
  8. Serve immediately with peanuts, bean sprouts, scallions, and red chiles, if desired.
