This was tonight's dinner. It could've been spicier, I
could've used more serranos but aside from that it was
delicious.

                        SAUCE:
   3      tbsp          hoisin sauce
     2/3  cup           water
   3      tbsp          rice wine vinegar
   3      tbsp          reduced sodium soy sauce
   1      tbsp          cornstarch
                        REST OF RECIPE:
   3      tbsp          vegetable oil
   2      cloves        garlic -- minced
   1                    serrano chile -- seeded &
minced
   1      lb            tofu -- cut in 1" cubes
   1      head          broccoli -- cut in 1" florets
     1/3  cup           rice wine
   1      bunch         scallions (both white & green)
-- cut in 1" pc
   1                    yellow bell pepper -- julienne
strips

Make sauce:

Combine the sauce ingredients in a small bowl.

In a wok, heat 2 tbsp of oil on medium-high heat. Add
garlic and serrano chile and stir-fry for 30 seconds
and then add tofu. Continue to stir-fry for 4 minutes,
or a bit more, until tofu is lightly browned. Remove
tofu and set aside.

Add last tbsp of oil to wok. Heat it for a few
seconds. Add broccoli. Stir-fry for 1 minute and pour
in rice wine. Stir-fry for 3 minutes. Broccoli may
stick. If so, add a bit of water to the wok. Scrape up
the little bits. Add scallions and bell pepper.
Continue to stir-fry for 1 minute, then add tofu back
to wok with the sauce ingredients. Stir carefully (so
not to break up cubes of tofu) and bring to a simmer.
Simmer for 4 minutes, until sauce is nice and thick.

Serve immediately.

Serve atop udon noodles (if you can't find udon, use
fettuccine or some other thick noodle).
