Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until mushrooms are tender, about 5 minutes. Add cornstarch solution. Cook, stirring, until sauce boils and thickens.

Simmer, stirring frequently until the sauce reduces and its color deepens to a dark brown, about 6 to 8 minutes. It should coat a spoon without running right off. Stir in the cashews, break the tofu into 1-inch pieces and toss in the pan to coat with sauce. Remove from heat, and taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary.
