Instructions

Open the tofu, and completely drain off the liquid. Cut the tofu in half, through the middle.
Wrap the tofu in a paper towel or kitchen towel. Place a cutting board on top of the wrapped tofu, then use a weight on top (a caste iron pan works well). Let the tofu site for 45 to 60 minutes.
Cut the tofu into strips, then into cubes.
Place the cubed tofu in a bowl, then evenly spread the cornstarch over the tofu while tossing.
Meanwhile, heat the oil on high in a 12 inch skillet. When the oil is hot, add the tofu. Stir fry until a crust forms, about 5 minutes. Add the vegetables, and stir fry for another 5 minutes. Add about 1 cup of the Serious Foodie Tamarillo Grill Sauce, and toss. Salt and pepper to taste. Add the scallions, and serve with an Asian hot sauce (for example, Serious Foodie Indonesian Sambal).
