Directions
- 1Preheat the oven to 200°C. Open your packet of tofu and drain out the excess liquid. Using clean hands, break chunks off the tofu to create bite-sized pieces. Add into a bowl along with the cornstarch, salt and pepper and toss well to coat.
- 2Spread the tofu out onto a lined baking tray, ensuring each piece does not touch or overlap. Spray generously with any neutral oil and bake for 20 minutes or until golden and crispy.
- 3In the meantime, fry the garlic in a splash of oil over medium heat. Add in the soy, tomato sauce, sugar and vinegar. Stir well and cook for 1 minute.
- 4Mix the water and cornstarch together then pour it into the pan. Allow mixture to bubble, stirring frequently until thickened. Turn off the heat and stir through the sesame oil.
- 5Add in the baked tofu and stir well to coat in the sauce.
- 6Transfer onto a plate and garnish with sesame seeds and green onions. Enjoy immediately!
