Marinated Tofu and Chinese Cabbage

Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tofu

    Press the firm tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut the tofu into bite-sized cubes.

  2. 2

    Make the Marinade

    In a bowl, mix together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and red chili flakes to create the marinade.

  3. 3

    Marinate the Tofu

    Add the tofu cubes to the marinade and let them marinate for at least 30 minutes, preferably in the refrigerator.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Chinese Cabbage

    While the tofu is marinating, chop the Chinese cabbage into bite-sized pieces.

  5. 5

    Cook the Tofu

    In a skillet over medium heat, add the marinated tofu and cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown.

  6. 6

    Combine and Serve

    In a large serving bowl, combine the cooked tofu and chopped Chinese cabbage. Drizzle with any remaining marinade. Garnish with chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
