Cacau da Rosa
773 reviews
Inspired by the classic American-Chinese takeout dish General Tso's, this dish is a lighter, plant based version made with organic tofu. The tofu is baked until crispy, then tossed in a sweet and spicy sauce with ginger and garlic. It comes with organic basmati rice and crunchy broccoli for the ultimate takeout experience.

The wedge of fresh lemon was an unexpected touch and a surprisingly good flavor combination.

I love it!!! Hey, you could also offer a variation of this dish with chickpea tofu, also known as Burmese tofu, as an alternative to traditional soy-based tofu. It is just chickpea flour (1 cup), water (3 cups), salt ( 1 teaspoon), and optional spices. Once you make it, you can slice it in any shape and pan-fry it until golden brown. I admit making it is a bit labor intensive, but it would be refreshing to see plant based chefs offering dishes with this kind of tofu too. Just a thought.
