Fry tofu, in batches, turning constantly, for 3 minutes, until golden all over.
Drain on paper towel.
Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of oil and reheat on high.
Add vegetables and salt to taste.
Stir-fry for 1 to 2 minutes, until tender but still crisp.
Remove and set aside.

Bring to boil, stirring.
Carefully fold through tofu and simmer gently for a minute to coat.
