General Tso Tofu II

Dice the tofu, place in a bowl and coat with cornstarch.

Place a large saucepan on the heat and pour 1/4 cup vegetable oil, add the tofu and cook on medium-high heat until browned, about 10 to 15 minutes.

Fry the shallots in oil a few minutes. Add peppers, garlic, ginger, half of green onions and cook for about 5 minutes.

Add soy sauce, sugar, chili paste, rice vinegar, and pineapple juice.

Separately: mix 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 3 tablespoons pineapple juice and incorporate to the preparation. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly which will thicken the sauce.

Add tofu and warm it up for 2 to 4 minutes. Garnish with remaining chopped scallions and serve.
