3 tablespoons maple syrup

Напрямки

Dice tofu into 1-inch cubes. Marinade for 30 minutes in 2 tbsp soy sauce/tamari (adjust to taste, if you are sensitive to salty foods use 1 tbsp or choose low sodium).

After 30 minutes, add nutritional yeast, corn starch, and garlic powder. Use a small spatula to toss it until it is evenly coated.

Air fry at 375 F for 12 minutes, toss and continue to air fry for another 8-10 minutes until desired crispiness is achieved. You can also bake at 400 for 20-25 minutes. Make sure to flip or toss halfway through cooking.

Next, whisk the miso paste into the 1/2 cup of water along with the cornstarch, soy sauce, and maple syrup.

Set a pan on medium heat and add sesame oil. Once hot, add garlic and fry for 30-45 seconds.

Add the sauce ingredients, stir consistently, and let simmer for 3-4 minutes until it thickens.

Check the consistency of the sauce and add more water if desired. The sauce should be thick and viscous but still a bit runny.

At this point, tofu should be done cooking. If tofu has met your desired level of crispiness, add it to the pan and toss it into the sauce.

Serve over rice and vegetables, enjoy!
