Spicy Vegan Mango and Tofu Stir-Fry Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Popular Recipes. (Spicy Vegan Mango and Tofu Stir-Fry Recipe). This is a vegan sweet and spicy tofu stir fry that was inspired by a dish I get at my local Thai restaurant. I've been working through this recipe for several years now but finally have created something I love. Ensuring all of the ingredients are thinly cut results in uniform cooking as well as a crunchy and addictive texture. This recipe also works great with chicken if tofu isn't your thing!
