Bring pot of water to a boil over medium-high heat and when at a rolling boil, add fresh noodles. Cook for about 3 minutes, drain in colander and rinse well under cold water. Set aside to continue draining.

Heat oil in wok over medium-high heat and stir-fry garlic and ginger until golden, about 2 minutes. Remove from wok and set aside.

Add tofu, adding more oil as necessary, and stir-fry for 3 to 4 minutes, or until it turns golden. Remove from wok.

Add scallions and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add bok choy, adding more oil if necessary, and stir-fry for 2 minutes, or until tender; add watercress and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Return garlic, ginger and tofu to wok and stir-fry 1 minute more. Remove from heat.

To make dressing, combine all ingredients in small bowl and mix well.
