Step 1

Press the tofu by wrapping the blocks in paper towels or a clean tea towel. Place a plate or pan on top of the wrapped tofu, and put something heavy (such as a cast iron pan) on top of that. Let the tofu press for about 30 minutes.

Step 2

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and grease a large sheet pan.

Step 3

Slice the tofu crosswise into 1/2 inch pieces, then slice each piece diagonally into 2 triangles. You can also simply cut the tofu into cubes or rectangles.

Step 4

Add the tofu pieces to a large ziplock bag (I wash and re-use these). Now add the olive oil, cornstarch and salt, close the bag and very gently shake to coat the tofu.

Step 5

Arrange on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes until golden on top. Remove from the oven briefly and pour on the bbq sauce, give it a little stir so the bbq sauce coats the tofu pieces and bake for another 10 minutes.

Step 6

Remove from the oven and serve immediately. It can be stored in the refrigerator for 3-5 days, but it doesn't freeze well. You can reheat it in the microwave, air fryer, oven or the stovetop.
