Sticky Sesame Tofu (Makes 2 servings)
Ingredients:
• 400g extra-firm tofu, pressed
• 4 tbsp low-sodium tamari
• 35g rice vinegar
• 35g ketchup
• 1 tbsp maple syrup
• 2 tsp arrowroot powder
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 5 spring onions (whites and greens separated)
• 20g sesame seeds
• Chilli flakes, to taste
Method:
Tear the pressed tofu into bite-sized chunks (rough edges = extra crispiness!). Air fry for 15 minutes, shaking the basket a few times.
Whisk together the tamari, rice vinegar, ketchup, maple syrup, and arrowroot until smooth.
Steam-fry the minced garlic and white parts of the spring onions in a pan for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
Pour in the sauce and simmer for a couple of minutes until glossy and thick.
Toss in the crispy tofu until fully coated, then finish with sesame seeds, green onion tops, and chilli flakes. Serve immediately!
