Sticky Tofu Bowl with Crispy Coating and Sauce
Ingredients
- 280g pack extra firm tofu
- 3-4 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1/4 cup cornstarch (cornflour)
Sticky sauce
- 2 tbsp tamari
- 2 tbsp agave or maple syrup
- 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar or ACV
- 2 tsp sriracha
- 1-2 tsp grated fresh ginger
- cornstarch slurry (1 tbsp corn flour + 1 tbsp cold water)
Preparation
Heat oil in a non-stick pan at medium heat.
Break tofu into pieces and generously coat with cornstarch.
Once oil is hot, add tofu and fry until golden and crispy, about 7-10 minutes each side.
While tofu is frying, combine all ingredients for sauce and heat in a separate pan at medium heat until it starts to thicken.
Once tofu is cooked, transfer into sauce and toss pieces until evenly coated.
Serve with rice and enjoy!
