    Preparation Steps

    1

    Wrap the tofu in paper towels and place it under a weighted plate for 15 minutes to remove excess moisture.

    2

    Cut the tofu into equal-sized cubes, then toss with cornstarch to ensure an even coating. This helps the tofu to become crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.

    3

    Heat the sesame oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the tofu cubes and cook on all sides until golden brown, about 8-10 minutes.

    4

    Meanwhile, mince the garlic and ginger, then mix them with the teriyaki sauce in a small bowl.

    5

    Once the tofu is cooked, pour the teriyaki sauce over it and stir to coat all sides well. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce has slightly thickened.

    6

    Chop the green onion and sprinkle it over the baked tofu along with the sesame seeds.

    7

    Serve hot, complemented with rice or steamed vegetables.
