Ingredients
- 300 g (3½ oz) semi-firm tofu, drained
- spicy soy and spring onion sauce (recipe here)
Instructions
- Pat the tofu dry with paper towel and cut into 5-cm (2-in) squares that are 2-cm (¾-in) thick. Place the tofu in an even layer in a wide-based frying pan or clay pot.
- Pour the sauce over the tofu and toss gently until well coated. Place the pan over medium–high heat, cover with a lid and braise the tofu for about 12–15 minutes or until heated through. Baste the tofu occasionally with the sauce.
- Serve straight from the pan or transfer to a serving plate. Pair with steamed rice.
