1 tablespoon | oyster sauce |
1 tablespoon | Asian fish sauce |
1 1/2 teaspoons | roasted red chile paste |

In a nonstick skillet, heat 1/4 inch of oil. Add the tofu and cook over moderately high heat, turning, until crisp, 5 minutes. Drain.
In a bowl, whisk the stock, oyster sauce, fish sauce, chile paste, soy sauce and sugar.
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of oil. Add the bell pepper, jalapeño, garlic and Thai chile and stir-fry over high heat until fragrant, 2 minutes. Add the noodles and stir-fry until browned, 4 minutes. Add the sauce and toss over moderately high heat, until absorbed. Fold in 1 cup of basil and the tofu. Garnish with more basil and serve with lime wedges.

For super-fiery dishes like these noodles, try a moderately sweet German Riesling to help mitigate the heat.
