Step 1

Drain the liquid from the tofu package and dry the tofu with paper towels. Cut into about 1-inch slices.

Step 2

Put the slices onto 2-3 paper towels and season them with Cajun seasoning and salt. Flip and season again.

Step 3

Place 2 more paper towels on top of the tofu slices and press gently with your hands. This way, you’ll remove any excess moisture and press the seasonings into the tofu.

Step 4

Cut the tofu into cubes and place on a large plate. Add the cornstarch and gently stir to coat (I like using my hands to do this).

Step 5

Heat the oil in a large, non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the tofu and cook 2-3 minutes per side, until golden and crispy.
