• totale tijd: 25 minutes

Ingrediënten

1 about 18-oz pack firm tofu

1 tablespoon vegetable/canola oil

3 tablespoons soy sauce

3 tablespoons water

1 tablespoon sesame oil

1 teaspoon sugar

1 teaspoon Korean red pepper flakes (gochugaru, 고추가루)

1 teaspoon sesame seed

1 teaspoon minced garlic

2 scallions (1 if large), finely chopped (about 1/4 cup)

Instructies

Cut the tofu block into 1/2-inch thick rectangular pieces. Pat dry with a paper towel.

Prepare the sauce by mixing all ingredients together.

Heat a tablespoon of oil in a large non-stick skillet, carefully add the tofu pieces (tofu breaks easily) and sear over medium to medium high heat until lightly golden brown (about 3 - 4 minutes each side).

Spoon the sauce over the tofu pieces. Slightly lift a side of the tofu pieces to get the sauce under them. Simmer for 3 - 4 minutes over medium to medium low heat. Flip them over, and simmer for another minute or two, spooning the sauce over the tofu pieces. Serve warm or cold with a bowl of rice.
