1 tbsp minced ginger

red pepper to taste

1 tbsp sherry (optional)

1tbsp white vinegar

Directions

Drain, dry and cut tofu into 1 inch chunks. for best results freeze tofu the night before to get a more chicken-like consistency, but it isn't necessary. Mix the egg replacer as specified on the box and add addition 3 tbsp of water. dip tofu in egg replacer/water mixture and coat completely. sprinkle 3/4 cup cornstarch over tofu and coat completely. watch out that cornstarch doesn't clump at the bottom of bowl.

Heat oil in pan and fry tofu pieces until golden. drain oil.

Heat 3 tbsp veg. oil in pan on medium heat. add green onions, ginger and garlic, cook for about 2 minutes. be careful not to burn garlic. add vegetable stock, soy sauce, sugar, red pepper and vinegar. (add sherry if using it.) Mix 2 tbsp water with 1 tbsp cornstarch and pour into mixture stirring well. add fried tofu and coat evenly.

Serve immediately with steamed broccoli over your choice of rice.

If you want it saucier, double the sauce.
