- Place tofu between a few sheets of paper towel and rest a heavy pan on top to release moisture for 10 minutes. Slice tofu into bite-sized cubes.
- In the meantime, begin boiling water for noodles and cook according to package directions. Heat oil over medium-high heat for 1 minute. Add tofu to the pan. Stir fry for 8 minutes until tofu is lightly browned, turning after 2-3 minutes. Transfer tofu cubes to a plate.
- Add remaining tablespoon of oil to pan and stir in snap peas, broccoli, and bell pepper. Cook 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium-low.
- In a small bowl, whisk together ingredients for sauce. Add cooked noodles, tofu and sauce to pan. Use tongs to coat noodles, tofu, and vegetables with sauce. Cook 2 minutes longer until sauce has thickened. Serve hot, garnished with cilantro and sesame seeds.
