Drain tofu, cut into 3/4 inch pieces. Place between layers of paper towel and weight down with a dinner plate. Let stand 10 minutes to compress and remove excess water.

Heat oil, 2 tbsp broth and ginger in a frying pan. Add celery, onion and red pepper. Stir cook over medium heat 3 minutes. Add bean sprouts, continue stir-cooking 1 min.
