Напрямки

Tear the tofu into bite-sized pieces instead of cutting it into cubes. - Those rough edges get extra crispy in the air fryer and hold onto more sauce.

Add the nutritional yeast, mushroom seasoning (if using), white pepper, salt, cornstarch, oil, and soy sauce. Toss until every piece is evenly coated.

Air fry at 400°F for 15–20 minutes, shaking the basket halfway through, until the tofu is golden brown and crispy.

While the tofu cooks, whisk together the mayo, sweet chili sauce, sambal oelek, sriracha, rice vinegar, cilantro, lemon juice, and salt until smooth.

Toss the crispy tofu in the bang bang sauce until fully coated.

Serve over a bed of jasmine rice and garnish with sesame seeds, extra cilantro, and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.

My biggest tip: Don’t skip tearing the tofu! Those craggy edges are the secret to getting the crispiest texture and soaking up every bit of that bang bang sauce.

Enjoy! 🤍
