Korean Spicy Braised Tofu

Prep Time: 15m | Cook Time: 10m | Servings: 3

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1/2 cup Water
• 1/2 tbsp sugar
• 1 tbsp gochugaru
• 1 tbsp sesame oil
• 1/2 tsp sesame seeds
• 2-3 cloves garlic
• 1/4 onion
• 1 green onion
• 450g tofu
• oil, for frying

Instructions

Mix all sauce ingredients in a small jug or bowl and set aside.

Heat oil in a frypan and pan-fry tofu for a few minutes on medium heat until just golden brown on both sides.

Turn heat down slightly and pour sauce evenly all over tofu. Simmer for 4-6 minutes, turning tofu half way. Add more water if needed to keep sauce a little runny, but not watery. Taste to see if you want to add more salt or sugar.

Serve on hot rice and garnish with extra spring onion and sesame!
