Crispy General Tso's Tofu | Sweet & Spicy Wok in 15 Min.

Thoroughly pat the plain tofu dry with paper towels and cut into approx. 2 cm cubes. Place the tofu cubes in a bowl and coat evenly with cornstarch so that all sides are covered. This ensures an extra crispy crust when frying.

Wash the broccoli and cut into small bite-sized florets. Wash the spring onions and slice into thin rings, separating the white parts from the green parts. Peel and finely chop the garlic and ginger. Wash the chili pepper, halve lengthwise, deseed, and finely dice.

For the General Tso's sauce, stir together soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown cane sugar, tomato paste, dark sesame oil, and 3 tbsp water in a bowl until smooth and the sugar has completely dissolved.
