Ingredients

  • 400 g extra firm tofu
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 3 tablespoon honey
  • 2 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Red Dragon Manis
  • 2 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoon sunflower oil
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Method

  1. 1

    Pat the tofu dry with paper towels and cut into cubes. Dust with cornstarch and shake well to coat.

  2. 2

    Fry in hot oil for 4-5 minutes per side until truly crispy and golden brown. Remove from pan.

  3. 3

    Fry the garlic in the same pan for 1 minute. Add honey, soy sauce, and Red Dragon Manis.

  4. 4

    Simmer the sauce for 2 minutes until it reduces and becomes glossy.

  5. 5

    Return the tofu and toss until everything is coated. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve with rice.

Tip from Garlicmaster: Coating the tofu with cornstarch is the secret to a crispy exterior. And pat it dry thoroughly — wet tofu will never get crispy.
