Instrucciones

Cut tofu in half and then slice into 2 inch rectangles. Try to cut them as even as possible. Dry with a paper towel.

Chop garlic and green onions.

Make your sauce by mixing gochujang, soy sauce, mirin, and honey. Then mix together with your chopped garlic and green onions.

Heat pan on medium-high heat. When the pan is hot, add some oil. Then, gently add in your tofu (be careful of oil splatter as tofu can still have water on it). Fry for 3-4 minutes on each side.

When both sides of the tofu is golden, add your sauce in and cook for 1-2 minutes. Try not mix the tofu so it doesn’t break.

You will see that your sauce has thickened up. Lastly, add your sesame oil and sesame seeds.
