T sambal

T sugar

tsp toasted sesame oil

water

cornstarch

T canola oil

block firm tofu, cut into 8 rectangular pieces

tsp kosher salt

tsp black pepper

Prepare the tofu by laying the slices out on two layers of paper towels. Top tofu with an additional layer of paper towels and use gentle pressure to wick away any surface moisture. Remove top layer of paper towels and let the tofu sit for about ten minutes to air dry.

To make the sauce whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, sambal, sugar, sesame oil, and water until sugar is completely dissolved. Transfer 1/2 cup of sauce to a small bowl and set aside for serving. Whisk the cornstarch into the remaining sauce mixture and set aside,

Heat oil in a large, non-stick skillet set over medium heat. When oil is shimmering but not smoking, gently lay the tofu in one even layer. Season with salt and pepper and cook undisturbed for 4-5 minutes or until light, golden brown. Flip and cook on the other side until golden brown.

Add the reserved sauce-cornstarch mixture to the tofu. Bring to a boil and then remove from heat. The sauce should thicken very quickly. If it gets too tight, add a splash of water to thin it out.

To assemble fill bowls with rice, cabbage and carrots. Top with tofu and garnish with scallions and sesame seeds. Serve extra sauce on the side.
