Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 200 gram (7oz) Firm Tofu, pressed and drained of water
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, grated
  • 2 tbsp Sambal Oelek (substitute with red chilli paste or siracha)
  • 2 tsp honey
  • 1 tsp vinegar
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
For garnish
  • a handful of finely chopped spring onions

Method
 

  1. Heat oil in a pan over medium heat.
  2. Saute the garlic until golden brown and fragrant.
  3. Reduce the heat slightly, and add the sliced tofu in one even layer.
  4. Once the bottom is golden brown, flip them all to the other side using a small spoon.
  5. Once that side is also golden, you may either proceed to the sauce or flip all sides to get a crisp skin throughout.
  6. In a bowl, combine the sambal oelek, honey, vinegar and soy.
  7. Pour the sauce over the tofu.
  8. Stir over high heat until the tofu absorbs most of the liquid.
  9. Remove from heat. Stir in the spring onions and sesame seeds
  10. Serve hot and enjoy!
