Sticky Tofu
🥕 Ingrédients
- Tofu: Opt for firm or extra-firm tofu to create crispy tofu cubes. Soft tofu is best to keep for dishes like thisMapo Tofu.
- Coconut sugar: I love the caramel-like flavour from coconut sugar, but you can substitute with brown sugar, honey, ormaple syrupif needed.
👨🍳 Instructions
- Cut the tofu into cubes then toss it in a bowl with the avocado oil and cornstarch.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a pan on medium-high heat then add half of the sliced green onions and all of the tofu cubes. Let the tofu cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.
- While the tofu cooks, prepare the sauce by mixing the sauce ingredients together in a bowl.
- Once the tofu is crispy on all sides, lower the heat to medium-low and pour the sauce, sesame seeds and green onions into the pan.
- Mix together, letting the sauce heat up and come to a light bubble. The sauce will cook down and coat the tofu cubes in a sticky sauce.
- Serve on its own or with rice and top with green onions and sesame seeds.
