Dredge marinated tofu pieces in cornmeal or cornstarch and fry over medium heat in 1\/8 to 1\/4 inch of oil, for 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Drain and keep warm in 200 degrees oven. Add leftover marinade to sauce mix. Heat 3 Tbls.. Oil in a wok. Stir fry garlic and onion until onion is tender. Add greens and continue stir frying until just wilted but not mushy. Add sauce mix and cornstarch mix and stir fry just until sauce is thickened. Add reserved fried tofu. Serve with rice.
