Ingredientes

half package of tofu (about 7 oz: 200 grams)

garlic

soy sauce

corn syrup (mulyeot)

black sesame seeds

Instruções

Slice the tofu into 10 bite size pieces (¼ inch thick rectangles). Towel off each piece with a paper towel.

Heat a pan and add 1 to 2 tbs of vegetable oil.

Add the tofu and lower the heat. Cook over low heat for about 5 to 7 minutes until the bottoms of the tofu pieces turn golden brown.

Turn over each piece and cook another 5 minutes.

Add 1 clove minced garlic, 1 tbs soy sauce, 1 tbs corn syrup and stir, to caramelize the tofu.

Turn the heat off and transfer the cooked tofu to a serving plate.

Sprinkle some roasted black sesame seeds over top before serving.

Serve with rice as a side dish, or in a Korean lunchbox.
