    casemnor's Note:

    This is a really yummy vegetarian dinner option. Even my non-vegetarian husband said it was great. Don't neglect to freeze/thaw/press the tofu as this will give the tofu a better, chewier texture. For additional flavor you can marinate the tofu in a bit of soy sauce and sesame oil.

      This was very good. My 2 year old loved it! I did make a few changed though. I use match stick cut carrots instead of broccoli, cashews and added some cilantro and lime juice at the end. It really toned down the vinegar and balanced out the flavor nicely.

      We loved the rich flavour of this stirfry - it was creamy without being heavy! According to suggestions, we added a bit of extra peanut butter to the sauce, as well as 2 tsp. fish sauce. Since we used natural peanut butter, it was extra rich, so I think we'll stick with 1/2 cup next time. We also substituted rice vinegar for the cider for a more authentic touch. We omitted the salt and used reduced-sodium soy sauce. We also reduced the honey to 2 tbsp. Next time, we will add a tsp. of chili flakes to the oil for the tofu to bring out the spice. We added a red pepper (after the broccoli) and sauted the onions along with the second round of garlic and ginger. We also omitted the scallions. Thanks for a great recipe!

      I signed up just to tell you I loved this dish. I only had tofu and broccoli in the fridge so I typed that into the search engine and this recipe came up. I had to change it as I didn't have everything on hand. I used honey instead of black strap, half the onion, and no cayenne pepper. I also substituted lemon for the cider vinegar. It was terrific and my husband loved it as well.
