Ingredients

  • 1 block extra firm tofu
  • 1/4 cup whole wheat flour for dipping (almond meal if you're gluten free)
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1/4 cup tamari
  • 1/4 cup sweetener (brown sugar, maple syrup, honey)
  • 1 tablespoon grated ginger

Method

  • Press the water out of the tofu (put a block of tofu between two plates or chopping boards weighted down by big cans for a few minutes). Then cut the tofu into cubes (slice the tofu into about 8-10 slices, and then cut each slice into small cubes). Put the whole wheat flour or almond meal in a brown paper bag. Put in the tofu and gently toss until all the pieces have a thin coating.
  • Mix the lemon juice, sweetener, soy sauce, and ginger in a small bowl. (If your guest is vegan, don't use honey.)
  • Heat the oil in a frying pan and then add the tofu. When the tofu is browned (5 minutes or so), add the sauce. Let it cook down until the tofu is completely glazed (5 minutes or so).
