Dusting the tofu cubes with cornstarch makes them easier to handle and produces a firm, crisp exterior. Add the fragile bok choy leaves at the last minute to avoid overcooking. If not using a wok, use a saucepan or skillet with high sides. Tofu is very moist, and oil may spatter.From "Betty Crocker's New Chinese Cookbook." Text Copyright 2005 General Mills, Inc.

Very tasty and healthy dish! I added a bit of chili sauce for an extra kick, and it was perfect. The tofu was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the bok choy was perfectly cooked. Definitely a keeper!

This was a great weeknight meal. It was quick and easy to make, and the flavors were spot-on. I used extra-firm tofu, which I pan-fried until it was crispy. The bok choy was tender and flavorful. I will definitely be making this again.
