Step 1
Remove the tofu from the package and drain off excess liquid.
Step 2
If you have time, press for 30 minutes by wrapping in a towel and placing a heavy object on top. This will help it get crispier!
Step 3
Once pressed, cut in half, then cut into cubes and add to a bowl.
Step 4
Toss with the cornstarch.
Step 5
Heat a large non-stick skillet (I do not recommend cast iron as tofu sticks easily with cast iron) with the sesame oil and vegetable oil, then add in the tofu.
Step 6
Cook on each side for about 3 minutes or until golden brown. Avoid touching the tofu while it's cooking on each side to ensure it actually gets crispy.
Step 7
Meanwhile, whisk together all ingredients for the sauce.
Step 8
Once the tofu is crispy on all sides, add the sauce into the pan and simmer until thick, stirring to ensure the tofu is well coated.
Step 9
Assemble your bowls with a bed of rice noodles, then add the tofu and veggies and top with peanut sauce. Enjoy!
