SWEET & SPICY TOFU

SWEET & SPICY TOFU
Addictive bites of tofu, crispy on the outside and soft in the middle, with a sweet spicy flavour. Perfect served with rice or noodles (or cauliflower rice for a low carb option!) 
INGREDIENTS
  • 4 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 200 g extra-firm tofu drained and pat dry
  • 3 spring onions sliced
  • 1 tsp minced garlic
  • 1/2 tsp minced ginger
  • 2 tbsp sriracha sauce
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar or balsamic vinegar
TO SERVE
  • 1 lime
  • 1 bunch of fresh mint roughly chopped
INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Add the oil to a large skillet and put on a high heat.
  2. Meanwhile, make sure the excess liquid has been drained from your tofu block and cut into 1 inch cubes. 
  3. After a few minutes, test if the oil is hot enough with a piece of tofu. Once it sizzles, it's ready! Add the rest of the tofu (you may need to fry in 2 batches, depending on your pan size) and fry for a few minutes before turning over and frying on the other sides. They should be golden and crispy. 
  4. Once cooked, transfer to a plate with some kitchen towel to mop up any excess oil. 
  5. Keep the pan on the hob but turn it down to a medium heat. Add the spring onions, garlic, ginger, Sriracha, soy sauce and vinegar. Fry for a couple of minutes.
  6. Return the tofu to the pan and coat with the sauce.
  7. Serve with rice (use cauliflower rice for a low carb diet) or noodles. Scatter fresh chopped mint on top and a squeeze of lemon juice.
