i just made this and it was soooo easy and soooo yummy!!

1 container FIRM tofu

egg substitue for 1 egg

1 c. cornstarch

veg oil for frying

4 chopped green onions

1 T. chopped ginger

1 T. chooped garlic

2/3 c. vegetable broth/stock

2 T. gluten-free soysauce

4 T. sugar

red pepper flakes ( to taste)

1 T. rice vinegar

steamed broccoli

Drain, dry and cut tofu into 1 inch chunks. You can 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 an additional 3 tablespoons water. Dip tofu in egg replacer/water mixture and coat completely. Sprinkle 3/4 cup cornstarch over tofu and coat completely.

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

Heat 3 Tablespoons vegetable 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. Mix 2 Tablespoons water with 1 Tablespoon cornstarch and pour into mixture stirring well. Add fried tofu and coat evenly.

YUMMMM!!

That sounds delicious! Is the sauce pretty much like the sweet General Tso sauces we used to get at the Chinese restaurants? (I loved that sauce!)
