A delightful tofu dish with a crispy texture and a tangy, flavorful glaze.
Slice the tofu into pieces about 3/8 inch thick.
Press the tofu beforehand to remove excess moisture for better crispiness.
Heat the oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the tofu to prevent sticking.
Fry the tofu slices for 3 minutes on each side until golden and crispy.
Avoid overcrowding the skillet to ensure even cooking.
In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, mustard, vinegar, chili powder, and garlic.
Taste the glaze and adjust the seasoning to your preference.
Remove the tofu from the skillet and set aside.
Place the tofu on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
Pour the glaze mixture into the skillet and cook for 2 minutes until it thickens.
Stir continuously to prevent the glaze from burning.
Return the tofu to the skillet and toss to coat with the glaze.
Ensure all tofu pieces are evenly coated with the glaze.
Transfer the tofu to a serving plate and garnish with sesame seeds and green onion.
Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
