Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tofu

    Drain the tofu and press it to remove excess moisture. Cut the tofu into bite-sized cubes.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Tofu

    In a bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, salt, and pepper. Add the cubed tofu and gently mix to coat. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

  4. 4

    Cook the Tofu

    Add the marinated tofu to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown on all sides.

  5. 5

    Add Green Onions

    Sprinkle chopped green onions and black sesame seeds over the tofu. Toss gently to combine and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from heat and serve hot as a side dish.
