Braised Tofu

1. 1

   *Take tofu out of package and drain for about an hour before preparing. I like to place it in a dish and press out more of the liquid by placing a small plate or chopping board and a can on top of it. Draining the tofu helps dry out the tofu before pan frying

2. 2

   While tofu is draining, thinly slice the green onion. I like to slice them on a bias for this recipe.

3. 3

   After draining the tofu, cut into cubes.

4. 4

   Heat oil in a non-stick pan (If you use a regular skillet, you may need to use more oil to keep the tofu from sticking to the pan). When the oil is hot, add the tofu pieces and pan fry for about 3-5 minutes. Flip and fry on the other side for about 3-5 minutes more.

5. 5

   After you have fried as many sides as you'd like, add the sherry and let it cook off for about 30 seconds. Add the chicken broth, salt, sugar, ginger and green onion. Shake the pan a bit to mix everything, and then let the broth reduce by half.

6. 6

   Take the pan off the heat and toss in the sesame oil. Serve!
