1 red chili, deseeded and finely chopped

1 tablespoon light soy sauce

1 tablespoon dark soy sauce

1 tablespoon brown sugar

800 g firm tofu, drained and cut into cubes

2 tablespoons sesame oil

Method

In a small bowl, mix the light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, and water. Set aside.

In another bowl, create a slurry by mixing cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water.

Heat sesame oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic, ginger, and chopped red chili. Cook for 2 minutes until fragrant.

Pour the soy sauce mixture into the pan and bring to a simmer. Add the cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce. Stir until the sauce is glossy and slightly thickened.

Add the tofu cubes to the pan and gently toss to coat with the sauce. Cook for about 5 minutes until the tofu is heated through.
