What a wonderful stir-fry! I loved the combination of flavors! I dry-fried the tofu using this method: Recipe #415903 while mixing up a double batch of the sauce. Then I let the tofu marinate in the sauce while I steamed the bok choy and sauteed the mushrooms. I used button mushrooms since I had them on hand, but I can't wait to try this again with shitake mushrooms because I know it will be even better! I also subbed Braggs Liquid Aminos for the soy sauce (and used extra). My husband loved this, and his friend who doesn't normally like tofu tried it and declared that it was "officially good." That's the highest possible compliment. Recipenapped for Veg*an Swap, March 2010.

Yummy this is so delicious! A little on the spicy side for me but very tasty and my husband loved it! I wish I'd doubled the recipe. It seems like it only makes enough for two or three servings. Next time I'll double recipe and also make some steamed rice as a side dish :) Be sure to drain the tofu well. . .I didn't drain it completely so when I put the cubes of tofu into the fry pan, the oil reacted with the water in the tofu! Needless to say, there was a huge splatter of oil on my stove. Be careful and don't do what I did ;) I highly recommend this recipe.

Terrific and easy. I made this as written, just added sliced onion and used sliced portabella mushrooms in place of shiitakes. The sauce was perfect; not too runny and not too thick. I loved this with the tofu, but if you have meat-lovers, you could easily used chicken or pork or fish instead. Happy Chinese New Year! Thanx for sharing!

HEAVEN I'M IN HEAVEN! That is the song that came to mind when I found this great website, I've spent hours here! I love to cook and try new recipes. I live in Jackson, NJ, have been married for 30 years and I have a beautiful 17 yr old daughter. Daina brightens everyday of my life, we are true friends. LOVE MY ANIMALS!! I learned to cook early in life, being the oldest girl of 7 children. I love cooking, and am accustomed to making alot of food. That's not so easy when you are cooking for only 3 people, so I try to make meals that I can freeze, or induldge in left overs..
