Tofu Cacciatore

(from CLattuada’s recipe box)

I made it with half the tofu (one package) but used the full amounts of mushrooms, tomatoes, broth and vinegar. I used 3 cloves of garlic and halved the oil, flour and seasoning. It came out really good! If you want I to seem more breaded, don’t half the flour.
