HOT AND SPICY TOFU

[Guest guest]

Hot and Spicy Tofu

 

Firm tofu, bell pepper, and red onion, all quickly stir

fried in a sweet and sour sauce. A word of caution

- this is VERY spicy!

If you like milder dishes, decrease the

amount of pepper flakes or omit them altogether.

 

Servings: 4

 

Ingredients:

 

3 tablespoons peanut oil

1 pound firm tofu, cubed

1 red onion, sliced

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 green chile pepper, chopped

3 cloves garlic, crushed

1/3 cup hot water

3 tablespoons white vinegar

3 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon brown sugar

1 teaspoon cornstarch

1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

 

Directions:

 

1. Heat peanut oil in a wok or large frying pan over

medium-high heat.

Toss the tofu into the oil, and cook until browned

on all sides.

Once browned, toss in onion, bell pepper, chile pepper,

and garlic; cook until just tender, about 5 minutes.

 

2. In a small bowl, whisk together the hot water, vinegar,

soy sauce, brown sugar, cornstarch, and red pepper flakes.

 

Pour over tofu and vegetables, toss to coat,

and simmer 3 to 5 minutes, or until sauce

thickens slightly.
