Sa Cha Tofu With Broccoli and Cauliflower

Submitted by NavyDoc13

"Sa Cha is also known as the Chinese BBQ sauce. It is sold in Asian groceries with the condiments packaged in jars or cans. The tofu takes on an Asian complexity of flavors with the addition of this sauce. It'll make a tofu-lover out of you yet! Note: Sa Cha or Shacha sauce is made with fish and shrimp: not suitable for vegetarians or those with shell-fish allergies"

I'm so sorry! We really did not like this. Just not that much flavor. I don't know if it was my BBQ sauce, or what!

What can I say? My son who hates vegetables actually said that this dish was fantastic. I cooked mine with Gai Lan , and used hoisin sauce instead of barbecue sauce because that was all we had, and chinese rice wine. This dish was so well received that I will be making it again tonight. Thank you so much for posting.

Very quick, easy and healthy. I added some chunks of onion for some extra flavor. I also used more than 1 cup of broccoli.....I think I would like more cauliflower, too. I will make this again, but double the veggies. Great way to get tofu in your diet. Thanx for posting!
