  • 1 large pinch salt
  • 3 tbsp cornflour

For the sauce

  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 3-4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil

Instructions
 

  • To make the tofu - slice it into cubes, then place in a bowl or tub and toss with the cornflour and salt. Heat a frying pan with a generous glug of oil over a medium-high heat and add the tofu. Fry until crispy and golden brown.
  • In a bowl, stir together all of the sauce ingredients.
  • Add back to the pan and cook until thickened (keep stirring for 1-2 minutes). Add in the tofu and stir so all the pieces are coated with the sticky sauce. Serve with spring onions and sesame seeds and enjoy!
