Ingredients
- 400 grams firm tofu
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons sake
- 2 tablespoons evaporated cane sugar
- 7 grams garlic (grated)
- 7 grams ginger (grated)
- 30 grams Potato Starch (4 tablespoons)
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 scallion (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
- Drain and slice the block of tofu into 5 slices. Place the tofu on a wire rack and drain it for at least 30 minutes. If you want to get this started in the morning, be sure to refrigerate the tofu as it drains.
- Mix the soy sauce, sake, and sugar to make the teriyaki sauce.
- Pat all sides of the tofu dry with paper towels.
- Rub the grated garlic and ginger onto all sides of the tofu and then dust every surface with a generous amount of potato starch.
- Heat a frying pan over medium heat and add the vegetable oil. Place the tofu in the pan with space between them, so they don't stick together. Pan-fry the tofu until it's browned on one side (3-4 minutes).
- Flip the tofu over and brown the second side (another 3-4 minutes).
- Use paper towels to wipe out any excess oil from the pan.
- Add the teriyaki sauce and glaze the tofu, flipping them over repeatedly until the sauce has thickened and formed a thick glaze around it.
- Garnish with chopped scallions and toasted sesame seeds to serve.
