Instructions
Cook the egg noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Press the tofu to remove excess moisture and cut it into small cubes.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the tofu cubes and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Add the minced garlic and sliced onion, and stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the carrot, cabbage, and green beans. Stir-fry the vegetables for 3-4 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked noodles and tofu to the skillet. Add the sweet soy sauce, soy sauce, vegetarian oyster sauce, and chili sauce. Stir well to combine all ingredients and evenly coat the noodles.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Toss everything together and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Sprinkle the sliced spring onions on top and serve hot, garnished with lime wedges on the side.
