Soak the flat rice noodles in warm water for about 10-15 minutes until they are soft, then drain and set aside.
Cut the firm tofu into thin slices or cubes. In a large pan over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and fry the tofu pieces until golden brown on all sides. Remove and set aside.
Thinly slice the garlic and chop the green onions into 2-3 inch pieces. Slice the baby bok choy into halves or quarters depending on size.
In the same pan over medium heat, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the garlic and fry until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the soaked noodles to the pan, along with the soy sauce, dark soy sauce, and chili paste. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the noodles are well coated with the sauce.
Add the fried tofu, bean sprouts, and baby bok choy to the pan. Stir-fry everything together for another 3-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Finally, add the green onions and a drizzle of sesame oil. Toss everything together and cook for an additional minute.
Transfer the stir-fried noodles to serving plates and garnish with toasted sesame seeds.
Serve immediately while hot. Enjoy your Vegan Fried Kuey Teow!
