Slice the pork tenderloin into thin strips and set aside.
Cut the tofu into bite-sized cubes. Pat dry with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
Chop the broccoli into small florets, thinly slice the red bell pepper, and julienne the carrot. Mince the garlic and finely grate the ginger.
Mix the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and water in a small bowl to make the stir fry sauce. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the tofu cubes and fry until golden on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Add another 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the same skillet. Add the pork and season lightly with salt and black pepper. Stir-fry until the pork is browned and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and set aside with the tofu.
In the same skillet, add the broccoli, red bell pepper, carrot, garlic, and ginger. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, until vegetables are crisp-tender.
Return the cooked pork and tofu to the skillet with the vegetables.
Pour the stir fry sauce over everything and toss to coat evenly.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of water to create a slurry. Add the slurry to the skillet and stir until the sauce thickens, about 1-2 minutes.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Garnish with chopped green onions.
Serve immediately over steamed rice, noodles, or on its own.
