Spicy Korean Fried Tofu

🧂 Ingredients

• 2 tbsp Soy Sauce
• 2 Green Onions

  chopped
• 1 Garlic Clove

  minced
• 1/2 tsp White Sugar
• 1 tsp Korean Hot Pepper Flakes (gochugaru)
• 1 tsp Sesame Oil
• 14 oz Medium Tofu
• 2 tbsp Canola Oil
• 1 tsp Toasted Sesame Seeds

Instructions

• 1 SAUCE: Combine the soy sauce, scallions, garlic, sugar, hot pepper flakes,
  sesame oil and 1 teaspoon of sesame seeds in a mixing bowl.
• 2 TOFU: Rinse the tofu under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Cut in half
  lengthwise, then cut each half crosswise into 10 pieces, so you have a total of
  20 1/4 inch slices.
• 3 Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil
  and tilt the skillet to spread it across the pan. Add the tofu and fry until the
  bottoms are golden brown and crispy, approximately 6-7 minutes. Turn the tofu
  over with a spatula, then drizzle the remaining oil around the edges of the
  skillet and tilt the skillet to spread it evenly. Cook until the other side of
  the tofu is golden brown and crispy.
• 4 Transfer the tofu to a serving plate. Spoon the spicy sauce on top, sprinkle
  with sesame seeds and serve.
