Instructions

1

Press the tofu: wrap in paper towels, place a heavy object on top, and let it drain for at least 10 minutes. Cut into 3/4-inch cubes.

Tip: Well-pressed tofu is the key to crispiness. The drier it is, the crispier it gets.

2

Toss the tofu cubes in cornstarch until evenly coated. Shake off excess.

3

Heat vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tofu in a single layer and cook for 3-4 minutes per side (don't move it) until golden and crispy on all sides. Remove to a plate.

4

In the same skillet, add the snap peas and bell pepper. Stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add garlic and ginger, cook 30 seconds.

5

Mix the sauce ingredients together. Return the tofu to the skillet, pour in the sauce, and toss for 1 minute until everything is coated and glossy. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
