Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Press the Tofu

    Start by pressing the tofu to remove excess moisture. Wrap the tofu block in a clean kitchen towel and place a heavy object on top for about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, sriracha, and minced garlic. Set aside.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cut the Tofu

    Once pressed, cut the tofu into bite-sized cubes.

  2. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet or frying pan, heat the sesame oil over medium-high heat.

  3. 5

    Sauté the Tofu

    Add the tofu cubes to the hot skillet and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until golden brown on all sides.

  4. 6

    Add the Sauce

    Pour the prepared sauce over the sautéed tofu and stir to coat evenly. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.

  5. 7

    Garnish

    Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
