食材

1 recipe Perfect Peanut Sauce or 1/3 cup peanut sauce of choice

14 oz extra firm tofu

1 tablespoon neutral oil

1 tablespoon soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)

1 tablespoon cornstarch

¼ teaspoon garlic powder

¼ teaspoon onion powder

½ teaspoon salt

Pinch of black pepper

Roasted peanuts, roughly chopped

Green onions, sliced

Fresh cilantro, chopped

步驟

Prep the tofu

Press the tofu using a tofu press (or learn how to press tofu without a tofu press!) for at least 30 minutes to remove excess moisture. Pat dry, then cut or rip into 1″ cubes.

Toss in seasoning

In a large bowl, mix the oil and soy sauce. Add in the tofu and mix until uniform. Add in the cornstarch, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper, then toss in the tofu once more until evenly coated.

Pan fry until golden

Heat neutral oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat until warm. Add the tofu in a single layer and cook for about 10-15 minutes, until golden and crispy on all sides.

Glaze it up

Once the tofu is golden, remove it from the heat and pour in about 1/3 cup of peanut sauce, or as desired, and mix.

Enjoy!

Serve immediately while warm and crispy with an additional drizzle of peanut sauce, roasted peanuts, chopped cilantro, and green onions, as desired.
