Combine all ingredients for sauce in a bowl. Set aside.

Prepare noodles according to package.

Heat sesame oil in a large pan or wok. Add tofu and cook until slightly browned. Add garlic and ginger, sauté for another minute or so. Add mushrooms, carrots, green onion and snow peas. Continue to cook for a couple minutes.

Add sauce, cook for 1 minute more. Add in coconut milk, cook 2 more minutes. Stir in bean sprouts, coriander, cashews and noodles. Mix well, and top with lime wedges.
