Soak the rice noodles in hot water for about 10 minutes, or until they are soft but not mushy. Drain and set aside.
Cut the tofu into bite-sized cubes. Heat 1 tablespoon of peanut oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the tofu and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and dark soy sauce. Set aside.
Mince the garlic cloves and set aside. Thinly slice the broccoli, and cut the carrot into thin julienne slices. Chop the green onions into 1-inch pieces.
In the same skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of peanut oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sautΓ© for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced broccoli and carrot to the skillet. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and crack the eggs into the other side. Scramble the eggs lightly, then mix with the vegetables.
Add the drained rice noodles, cooked tofu, and sauce mixture to the skillet. Toss everything together gently to coat the noodles and ingredients in the sauce.
Continue to stir-fry over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through and well combined.
Sprinkle with black pepper and chopped green onions. Serve hot and enjoy your high protein Pad See Ew!
