Simmered Tofu

Here's a vegetarian version of my Grandpa's Simmered Chicken Wings. It's very yummy, and it doesn't take too long to make either. I recommend serving this dish with rice, but it can be eaten plain too.

• 2 containers of firm tofu, drained
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 clove garlic, crushed
• 2 TBSP ketchup
• 1/4 cup sherry OR apple juice
• 1/2 to 3/4 tsp crushed red pepper (to taste)
• 1 green onion, sliced
• 2 TBSP cornstarch
• 1 TBSP cold water

1. Combine all ingredients and simmer for 20 minutes.
2. Remove tofu and onion to serving dish.
3. Add a mixture of 2 TBSP cornstarch dissolved in 1 TBSP cold water to sauce, stirring constantly until thickened.
4. Pour over tofu and serve.
