Drain the firm tofu and wrap it in a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture. Cut into small cubes.
In a pot of boiling water, cook the yakisoba noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and ginger, and sauté until fragrant. Add the ground pork (or mushrooms) and stir-fry until cooked through.
Gently add the tofu cubes to the skillet and stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes. Add the doubanjiang and soy sauce, mixing well to coat the tofu.
Add the cooked yakisoba noodles to the skillet, tossing everything together. Drizzle with sesame oil and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Chop the green onions and sprinkle them over the yakisoba before serving. Enjoy your Mabo Tofu Yakisoba!
