Sweet and Sticky Tofu
Ingredients
- 1/2 pack extra firm tofu
Sauce
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp maple syrup
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp sriracha
- 1 tbsp cornflour
- 1 tsp garlic granules
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- sesame seeds
Preparation
Preheat oven to 200c/180c fan/400f/gas mark 6, line a baking tray with non-stick baking parchment.
Prepare the tofu by draining all the liquid out of the packaging, then gently pressing the tofu in between two clean tea towels until dry. Slice the tofu into bite-size cubes.
Transfer the tofu to the baking tray and cook in the oven for 10-15 minutes until slightly crisp on the outside.
Meanwhile, whisk all the sauce ingredients together in a small bowl until smooth and well combined. Stir in some sesame seeds for a crunchy texture.
Heat a little oil in a wok or frying pan, once hot, add in the tofu and pour over the sweet and sticky sauce, cooking on a medium heat setting, stirring frequently for 5 minutes. The sauce will go thick and sticky but that’s totally fine.
Serve with rice or noodles, spring onion to garnish and veggies.
