    Preparation Steps

    1

    Cut the tofu into cubes and pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

    2

    Prepare the marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey (or agave syrup), sesame oil, grated garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes.

    3

    Place the tofu cubes in a bowl and pour the marinade over them. Let it marinate for 20-30 minutes, allowing the flavors to infuse.

    4

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

    5

    To serve, sprinkle the tofu with toasted sesame seeds and fresh cilantro. Serve with steamed rice or your favorite vegetables.
