Vegan Pancit Canton Stir Fry
This is a Vietnamese style stir fry using Filipino noodles! This is based on a stir fry my mom used to make with e-fu noodles, but since those have eggs in them, I switched to this noodle! It's easy, versatile, and customizeable.

Prepping the soy curls

- In a large wok over medium heat, heat 1 tbsp of vegetable oil and add the rehydrated soy curls. Sprinkle cornstarch and mushroom broth powder over the soy curls, and stir to coat everything well as you fry until both sides are browned.Once cooked and browned to your liking, transfer into a clean bowl and set aside.1 tbsp vegetable oil, 1 tbsp corn starch, 1 tbsp mushroom broth powder
Prepping the veggies

To cook the noodles
- Bring 4 cups of well seasoned vegetable broth to a boil, then add the dry pancit noodles. Stir to submerge and let the noodles cook through. Once the noodles are chewy and have absorbed most of the water, taste to check for seasoning.4 cups well seasoned vegetable broth, 1 package
