Thanks! I've tried doing this once before, but this is easily the best I've tried yet.
The biggest difference has been giving the tofu a hard fry before adding it. With chicken, that's not a necessary step, but tofu falls apart without it
I like to toss the tofu cubes in some corn starch and appropriate spices (Chinese ⁵ spice or ancho chili powder are favorites) before I fry them. Makes a lovely crust.
