Wrap tofu with paper towel and place on plate; cover with another plate and top with a heavy can. Let stand for 15 minutes. 

Cut tofu in half crosswise and then lengthwise. Cut each square on a diagonal to get triangles; coat well with cornstarch. 

Heat oil in large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pan-fry tofu until golden brown on both sides; remove to plate. Add carrots and sauté for 5 minutes or until starting to become golden. Return tofu to skillet. 

Meanwhile, whisk together broth, soy sauce and miso. Pour into skillet along with edamame and sesame seeds; bring to a simmer and turn tofu to coat well. 

Whisk cornstarch and 2 tsp water together; stir into skillet. Simmer for 3 minutes or until well coated.
