Honey Soy Tofu

Serves 4

Ingredients

1 block(s) tofu
2 clove garlic
0.25 tsp ginger powder
1 tbsp honey
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp vegetable oil

Directions

1. Drain the tofu, and squeeze it between two towels to remove any excess water
(Alternatively press, although this will take longer)

2. Cut it into 1cm dice, or slabs 0.5-1cm thick

3. Heat the oil in a large frying pan, and add the tofu. Cook over a medium heat for 5-10 minutes, stirring/flipping occasionally, until the tofu is golden brown and crispy all over. Make sure you have enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan, and if the tofu sticks a lot, let it cook until it releases, but make sure it does not burn to the pan.

4. Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine the soy sauce, honey, ginger, garlic and five spice, along with a good pinch of black pepper. Mix well.
(May omit the five spice, may add additional spices)

5. When the tofu is crispy, pour over the sauce, and mix to combine. Allow the mixture to bubble a little, until it has reduced by half, and is thick and coats the tofu.
