Instruções

Make the cucumber salad. Toss together the sliced cucumber with the rice vinegar, sugar and the toasted sesame oil. Set aside while you make the rest of the items.

Grate the tofu using a large hole box grater. If large pieces come off, slice them very thinly. Set aside.

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the scallions, chili, and garlic and cook, stirring often, for 1-2 minutes until it is just fragrant. Add the tofu and cook, stirring often, until the tofu is golden brown and crispy, about 10-12 minutes.

While the tofu is cooking, make the sauce. Whisk together the soy sauce, wine, sesame oil, honey, ginger and oyster sauce. Add the sauce to the tofu and cook another minute or two to warm through and coat the tofu.

Serve warm over cooked rice and the cucumber salad. Garnish with thinly sliced scallions if desired.
