Begin by soaking the rice vermicelli noodles in a large bowl of hot water for about 5-7 minutes or until they become soft. Drain and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or pan over medium-high heat. Add the cubed tofu and stir-fry until all sides are golden brown. Remove the tofu from the pan and set aside.
In the same wok, add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Add minced garlic and sliced red onion. Stir-fry for about 2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the julienned carrot, sliced cabbage, and red bell pepper to the wok. Stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender yet crisp.
Return the cooked tofu back to the wok along with the drained rice vermicelli noodles.
Pour in the soy sauce, dark soy sauce, vegan oyster sauce, and chili paste (if using). Toss everything together until well mixed and heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the bean sprouts to the wok and stir-fry for another minute just until they begin to soften.
Turn off the heat and add chopped green onions and cilantro into the mix, tossing once more to combine.
Transfer the Bihun Goreng to serving plates and serve with lime wedges on the side for an extra tangy flavor.
