Step 1

Drain and rinse tofu and then press it by placing between two kitchen towels (or paper towels) and top with a heavy pot, book or weight. Let sit ~30 minutes or until most of the moisture is expelled.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Cut the tofu into 1-2 inch cubes and place on the baking sheet. Bake for 10 minutes on each side until light golden brown. Set aside and allow to cool.

Step 3

Mix the spices together in a bowl while the tofu is cooling.  Once the tofu has cooled, use your hands to toss with olive oil (~1 tablespoon) so it’s lightly coated then add to the bowl of spices.  Again, using your hands, toss gently to coat the tofu.  Sprinkle the tofu with cornstarch tossing gentle to coat.

Step 4

In a large skillet, heat 1-2 tablespoons olive oil and add the tofu and cook, tossing to get each side (~5 minutes per side or until tofu is crisp).  Remove from heat.

Step 5

Add all ingredients together in a bowl and toss well to combine.
