Cook The Book: Seasoned Tofu

1. 1

   Remove the tofu from its package and let it drain in a colander or on its side in a bowl.

2. 2

   Combine the green onions and garlic in a small bowl. Add the soy sauce, sesame oil, sesame seeds, and chile powder and mix.

3. 3

   Cut the tofu cube lengthwise in half, then cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices.

4. 4

   Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over high heat. Carefully place the tofu slices in the skillet. Cook until the tofu is slightly browned on the bottom and getting a bit crispy on the edges, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn the slices over and brown the other side.

5. 5

   Reduce the heat and spoon the seasoning over the tofu, distributing it somewhat evenly. Cover and let steam for 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate and serve immediately.
