Ingredients

  • 1 block Firm tofu (large)
  • 2 tsp Sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp Rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Sugar or honey
  • 1 tsp Grated ginger
  • 1 tsp Minced garlic
  • 1 Sesame seeds
  • 1 cup Katakuriko

Method

  • Put a weight on top of the firm tofu to drain the excess water.
  • You can omit this step, but if you prefer tofu served with a firmer texture, I'd recommend this step.
  • Cut the tofu into 2-3 cm thick triangles.
  • Boil all the ingredients except for the tofu in a pan and remove from heat.
  • Taste and if the flavor is too strong, add vinegar or some water.
  • In a plastic bag, add katakuriko and tofu, and coat the tofu with katakuriko.
  • Deep-fry the tofu over medium heat until all sides are crisp.
  • Drain off any excess oil from the deep-fried tofu.
  • Add the tofu to the pan from Step 3, and coat well with the sauce.
  • Sprinkle on sesame seeds to garnish.
