Teriyaki Tofu Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tofu

    Press the tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut it into cubes.

  2. 2

    Make the Teriyaki Sauce

    In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, mirin, and sesame oil until the sugar is dissolved.

  3. 3

    Coat Tofu

    In another bowl, toss the tofu cubes with cornstarch until evenly coated.

  4. 4

    Cook Tofu

    Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tofu cubes and cook until golden brown on all sides, about 7-10 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add Sauce

    Pour the teriyaki sauce over the cooked tofu and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the tofu.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Garnish with green onions and serve with salad, miso soup, and white rice.
