Peanut Sauce:
Cook noodles al dente according to package instructions.
For peanut sauce, stir together all ingredients, adding 1tbsp of water at a time until desired consistency is reached.
Press as much moisture out of tofu as possible and cut into cubes.
Heat a saucepan over medium with a little sesame oil (or oil of choice). Add in tofu and cook until golden on both sides (about 8mins). Set aside.
Heat a little sesame oil in your sauce pan and add in carrots and green onions. Saute until carrots begin to soften, about 2 minutes.
Reduce heat to low and stir in tofu, drained noodles, and peanut sauce. Toss/cook until heated through.
Remove from heat. Top with crushed peanuts, sesame seeds, and cilantro, and serve!
