Finishing Touches

  • 15 mlSesame oil
  • 2 stalksGreen onion

Base

  • 600 gCooked rice or noodles

Instructions

  1. 1

    Drain the tofu and press it to remove excess moisture. Cut it into 1.5 cm cubes.

  2. 2

    Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Add 7.5 ml sesame oil. Once hot, add the tofu cubes in a single layer. Cook for about 3-4 minutes until golden on one side, then flip to brown the other sides.

  3. 3

    While the tofu is cooking, clean and slice the mushrooms. If using shiitake mushrooms, remove the stem.

  4. 4

    Once the tofu is browned, add the mushrooms to the pan and continue to stir-fry for another 4-5 minutes until they are tender and cooked through.

  5. 5

    In a bowl, mix together the soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, grated garlic, grated ginger, and chili flakes (if using). Stir until the sugar dissolves.

  6. 6

    Pour the sauce over the tofu and mushrooms, stirring to coat everything evenly. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.

  7. 7

    Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions. Serve hot over cooked rice or noodles.
