Crispy Orange Tofu

flaxseed

water

cornstarch

flour ((all-purpose

vegetable oil ((toasted sesame oil, olive oil))

vegetable oil ((sesame, toasted sesame, or olive oil))

garlic powder

green onions

orange ((about 1 tablespoon))

soy sauce

rice vinegar

agave syrup ((substitute maple syrup))

orange juice ((the juice of one orange from the zest above))

agave syrup ((or maple syrup))

Press the tofu and then chop it into 1/2-inch cubes. (See notes for how to press tofu)

Stir together the flax, water, cornstarch, and flour in a bowl until combined. Add the tofu (in batches works best) and thoroughly coat each piece. Use a fork to remove tofu pieces and gently tap on the bowl to remove excess batter. Add a tablespoon of additional water if the batter gets too thick.

Place a skillet over medium to medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Place 2 to 3 sheets of paper towels on a plate on the counter near your skillet.

Use tongs to place half of the batter-coated tofu in the heated oil. Allow space between each piece for all the sides to get browned. Cook the tofu on each side until browned. Place finished pieces of tofu on the paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Add a little more oil to the pan and repeat with the remaining tofu.

For the Fried Tofu:

In a small bowl, stir together the orange coating ingredients.

Return the tofu to the pan and add gently stir in the orange coating. Cook over medium heat until thickened, 1 to 2 minutes.

For the Orange Tofu Coating:

Prepare the sticky orange sauce by combining all the ingredients in a medium microwave-safe bowl. Stir to combine. Heat in the microwave in 30-second increments until thickened. It shouldn&#39;t take very long. If it gets too thick, add a little hot water and stir to incorporate.

Serve the tofu over brown rice with additional chopped green onions, sticky orange sauce, and sesame seeds. A side of steamed broccoli goes nicely with this dish too!
