3 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon cornstarch

******

3 tablespoons vegetable oil -- (3 to 4)

2 garlic cloves -- minced or pressed

1 small fresh chile -- seeded and minced

1 1/2 cakes tofu -- (about 18 ounces), cut into 1-inch cubes

1 large head od broccoli -- cut into 1-inch florets, stems

1/3 cup dry sherry

1 bunch scallions -- cut into 1-inch pieces (about 1 1/2 cups)

This satisfying saute is enriched bt the sweet, spicy flavor of Chinese hoisin

sauce.

 

Combine the sauce ingredients in a small bowl. Before beginning to stir-fry,

prepare the vegetables and have all the Ingredients at hand.

 

In a wok or large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil on medium-high heat.

Add the garlic and Chile and stir-fry for just 30 seconds before adding the

tofu. Continue to stir-fry for 3 to 4 minutes, until the tofu is lightly

browned. Remove the tofu and set it aside. Add another tablespoon of oil to the

wok, heat for a few seconds, and then add the broccoli. Stir-fry for a minute

and pour in the sherry. Stir-fry for 3 minutes. If the broccoli begins to

scorch, add a tablespoon of water. Add the scallions and optional bell pepper,

continue to stir-fry for a minute, and then the tofu and the sauce. Stir

carefully and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 3 or 4 minutes, until the sauce

thickens.

 

Top with peanuts and serve immediately.
