Cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Cut the extra-firm tofu into small cubes and crumble the nori seaweed sheets over the tofu. Add soy sauce and let marinate for 10 minutes.
In a large pan, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Add minced ginger and crushed garlic cloves, and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the marinated tofu to the pan. Stir-fry for about 5 minutes until it starts to turn golden brown.
Slice oyster mushrooms and carrot thinly. Add them to the pan with the tofu and stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with a little bit of cold water to form a slurry.
Pour the vegetable broth into the pan and bring to a simmer. Stir in the cornstarch slurry until the sauce thickens slightly.
Add the cooked rice noodles to the pan along with plant-based fish sauce. Toss everything together to combine.
Chop the green onions and slice the lime. Sprinkle the green onions over the noodles and squeeze lime juice over the top.
Serve hot and enjoy your vegetarian seafood noodles.
