Kung Pao Tofu

This kung pao tofu is tasty, I used two green bell peppers and 1 large red bell peppers, I have no oyster sauce, so I used housin sauce, and it is still savory, tofu is a wonderful replacement of chicken, and in this recipe, you can't tell they are tofu or chicken after cooking with delicious sauce.
