Heat up a large skillet or wok with 1 tbl of oil and stir fry tofu, garlic and ginger pieces until tofu is lightly browned all over. Remove tofu from pan, add another tbl of oil and then add eggplant and stir fry for about 6 minutes then add all other vegetables (pea pods, water chestnuts, shrooms, and scallions. Stir fry and occasionally cover to steam a little. When eggplant starts to get soft, add tofu back in and toss, then stir the sauce again and pour in.
