Heat the oils in a pot then add the ginger and garlic. Cut the tofu into 1cm cubes (about the size of the tip of your thumb) and add to pot. Saute the tofu, ginger, and garlic until the tofu is lightly crisped. Add in the vegetables and saute briefly. The broccoli stalks should be cut fairly thin (i.e. slightly larger than a matchstick). If the skin is tough, slice it off and only use the middle, softer bits.

Add in the water and bring to a boil. Crumble in the dark miso and stir to help it dissolve. Reduce heat to simmer, add in soy sauce (about 3 Tbsp -- adjust to taste) and a hot pepper or some hot sauce if you want to add some spice. Simmer until vegetables are desired level of softness (about 5 - 10 minutes).
