If you want takeaways for dinner but don’t want to spend any money, you have to try this recipe! Serve with veggies and rice or noodles.

Ingredients

2 blocks firm tofu
2 tbsp cornstarch
1 tbsp garlic powder
1 tsp salt

Sauce
1/4 cup rice vinegar
1/4 cup agave
1/4 cup sweet chilli sauce
1 tbsp soy sauce
1/2 tsp sesame oil
1/3 cup water
pinch salt
2 tsp cornflour

spring onions & sesame seeds to top

Method

Press the tofu dry with a paper towel and then break it into bite-sized chunks. In a bowl, coat the tofu chunks with cornflour, garlic powder, and salt. Bake in the oven or air fryer for 15 minutes at 180 degrees Celsius.

While the tofu is baking, whisk together all the sauce ingredients until the cornflour is dissolved.

In a large fry pan, heat about 1 tbsp of olive oil and add the baked tofu chunks. Coat the tofu in the oil, then add the prepared sauce. Stir the sauce until thickened, ensuring all the tofu is well-coated. Simmer for a few more minutes, then serve topped with spring onions and sesame seeds. Enjoy!
