Step 1

Press the tofu using a tofu press or by wrapping the block in a dish towel and placing a heavy object on it. Let it sit for 20-30 minutes. This removes excess moisture for a crisper and more flavourful result.

Step 2

When you’re getting ready to proceed, preheat the oven to 400 F.

Step 3

Cut the tofu into small cubes and add them to a bowl or plastic bag. Add the cornstarch and soy sauce and toss to coat.

Step 4

Line a baking tray with parchment paper. If you don’t have parchment, use a light coating of non-stick cooking spray. Place the tofu cubes on the pan so each piece has some space around it. They don’t have to be perfectly spaced out, you just want the air to be able to reach all sides.

Step 5

Bake the tofu for 20-25 minutes until crisp and golden brown.

Step 6

When the tofu has 6-7 minutes left, mix the sauce ingredients together in a dish until all the cornstarch is dissolved and no clumps remain.

Step 7

Add to a pan and heat over low to medium heat, stirring frequently. Stir and continue heating until it starts to thicken, this should take 4-6 minutes.

Step 8

Once the tofu is ready, add it to the pan and stir to coat.

Step 9

Enjoy hot right away as a side dish topped with sesame seeds and thinly sliced green onios, served over rice or added to any bowl, wrap or salad.
