Steps:
- Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil. Pat the tofu dry between 2 layers of paper towels; season with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the tofu and cook, turning once, until well browned and slightly crisp, about 15 minutes; transfer to a plate.
- Meanwhile, cook the pasta in the boiling water, 1 to 2 minutes less than the label directs for al dente. Reserve 1 cup cooking water, then drain. Mix the soy sauce, oyster sauce and 1/2 cup of the cooking water in a small bowl.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil to the skillet. Increase the heat to high and add the broccoli. Cook, stirring, until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Add the bell pepper, carrot, jalapeno and ginger and cook until just softened, 2 more minutes. Add the noodles, tofu and soy sauce mixture and cook, tossing, until most of the sauce is absorbed, about 2 minutes. Stir in enough of the remaining 1/2 cup cooking water to loosen. Drizzle with the sesame oil, season with salt and toss.

Steps:
- Place tofu on a plate between paper towels and put a second plate on top with a heavy weight like a large can for a couple of minutes to press out the water. Cut tofu into to bite-size cubes. Spray large skillet with cooking spray; then heat oils in skillet over medium-high heat. Add tofu, onion and garlic and fry until golden brown, about 15 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent burning.
- Meanwhile bring water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add noodles from ramen packages, reserving the seasoning envelopes. Boil for about 2 minutes, just until the noodles break apart. Drain.
- Add the stir-fry vegetables to the pan with the tofu, and season with the ramen noodle seasoning packets. Cook, stirring occasionally until vegetables are tender, but not mushy. Add noodles, and stir to blend.
- Season with soy sauce to taste and serve.
