This is some fantastic kung pow tofu from vegweb. This is pretty similar in style to sweet and sour tofu and general tso's tofu (posting coming soon). I like this better than sweet and sour, but not as much as general tso's.
I like the heat of the kung pow sauce, but this isn't for the feint of heart. (It's been a while since I made this, but I think I doubled the amount of roasted red pepper flakes) I was pretty lazy when I made this and so this is just tofu over rice. This would be great with some stir fry veggies, like broccoli, snow peas and bean sprouts.
I was tweeting (posting messages to twitter) while my tofu was frying and I burned it pretty badly. So, under normal circumstances the tofu shouldn't look this dark.
I also like this dish because it makes me think about the episode of Seinfeld in which George is sweating from eating kung pow chicken and he exclaims, "It's the Kung Pao. George likes his chicken spicy.". Here's a link to a clip of the episode.
