Gently drain and cut the silken tofu into 2cm cubes. In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and water to create a slurry.
Heat cooking oil in a wok or large pan over medium heat. Add ginger slices and minced garlic, stir-fry until fragrant.
Add winter melon cubes and all assorted mushrooms (shiitake, enoki, oyster mushrooms) to the wok. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened.
Pour in vegetable broth, vegetarian oyster sauce, light soy sauce, sugar, and white pepper. Bring to a simmer. Gently add the silken tofu cubes and goji berries.
Cover and simmer for 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Add bok choy and cook until tender-crisp. Stir the cornstarch slurry one more time, then gradually add it to the simmering sauce, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.
Drizzle with sesame oil. Ladle the braised tofu and vegetables into a serving dish. Serve hot with steamed white rice.
