Step 1

In a small bowl, mix together ingredients for lava sauce, set aside.

Step 2

Place two paper towels on a plate then place the entire block of tofu (drained from its packaging liquid) onto the plate. Place two more paper towels on top of the tofu then put a heavy item on top. Not TOO heavy that it would completely crush the tofu but heavy enough that it can squeeze out liquid. Leave for 30 minutes and halfway through, change out the paper towels.ALTERNATIVELY and more eco-friendly: place a wire baking rack on top of a rimmed baking sheet. Place tofu on top and then put a heavy object on top and let drain for 30 minutes.

Step 3

Once the tofu has drained, slice in half then into cubes and place into a large bowl. Sprinkle cornstarch on top and gently toss with your hands to ensure all tofu pieces are covered.

Step 4

In a large skillet, add avocado oil or vegetable oil and heat to medium-high. Add the tofu to the skillet and let cook until crispy. Do not touch it or flip for 3-4 minutes to ensure crispiness then repeat on all sides.

Step 5

Remove tofu from skillet and put on a plate and set aside. Using the same skillet at medium heat, add red peppers, broccolini, garlic, and ginger. Cook until broccolini has softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the sauce, bring to low simmer, then add tofu back in. Stir to coat everything and remove from heat.

Step 6

Serve on top of white rice.
