Pan-Fried Tofu in Teriyaki Sauce

Prep time: 5 mins
Cook time: 10 mins
Yield: 2 to 3 serves

Ingredients:

• 3 pieces (about 250 gm) firm tofu
• corn flour (corn starch), for coating
• 1 clove garlic
• 1 spring onion, diced

Sauce:

• 1½ Tbsp light soy sauce
• 1 Tbsp mirin
• 2 tsp raw sugar

Thickening:

• 1 tsp corn flour (corn starch)
• 1 Tbsp water

Method :

1. Wipe dry tofu with kitchen papers. Lightly coat with corn flour. It helps absorb the excess water. Set aside.
2. Heat oil over medium high heat. Pan-fry tofu until both sides are brown. Dish up. Set aside.
3. In the same wok, sauté garlic. Pour in all the sauce ingredients. Bring it to boil. Add spring onion. Pour over the tofu. Serve immediately.

Notes：

• Make sure the tofu is dry enough. Be careful that hot oil will spill out if there’s any water dripped into the hot oil.
• Mirin is an essential condiment used in Japanese cuisine, available at Asian grocers.
