Sweet and Sour Tofu-Vegetable Stir-Fry

I didn't have ketchup, so I substituted sweet/hot sauce and left off the jalapenos. 

I LOVED THIS RECIPE!  The fabulous sauce contributed to my enthusiasm, but I also loved the precise cooking times for each part of the stir fry.  It made such a difference in texture and taste to separate some of the ingredients as they were finished.  They were done just right!  The tofu had a crispy outside, the peppers were done so there was still some cruch, but were soft.  I also loved the addition of broccolini, which I would never had thought of.

I agree with a previous review that making the sauce ahead of time would be dandy!  

For a homemade sauce I would expect this to be much better. Perhaps because I did not add the chili pepper so that I could make it kid-friendly, we lost some of the flavor. I found it to be sour and sort of flat tasting. Also the sauce didn't thicken which was disappointing - I don't know if I did something wrong with the cornstarch. It was easy to make so maybe I will try it again with the spice just to see the difference.

This was absolutely delicious! I didn't have Thai chili so I substituted with red pepper flakes which worked perfectly and added a good bit of heat ( 1 1/2 tablespoons). You could definitely make the sauce earlier in the week and even fry up the tofu and then this could be a tasty and fast midweek Mea! Will definitely keep this one for the family!!
