Tofu and Sauce Ingredients
Method
Preparation and Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Tofu
Press the tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut the tofu into bite-sized cubes.
Fry the Tofu
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the tofu cubes and fry until golden brown and crispy on all sides, about 8-10 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Make the Peanut Sauce
In a small bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, soy sauce, honey or maple syrup, rice vinegar, chili paste, minced garlic, and water until smooth.
Combine and Serve
In the same skillet used for frying, add the fried tofu and pour the peanut sauce over it. Toss gently to coat the tofu in the sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to heat through. Serve hot, garnished with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
