Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the tofu. Cook until crispy and lightly browned all around, tossing often. This should take about 8 minutes.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Press Your Tofu Thoroughly 🧊Wrap firm tofu in a clean kitchen towel and press for 15-20 minutes under a heavy object to remove excess moisture, ensuring crispy edges and better sauce absorption.
- Dredge and Rest Before Cooking 🥄After coating tofu cubes in the flour-cornstarch mixture, let them sit for 5 minutes to allow the coating to set properly for maximum crispiness.
- Toast Your Sesame Oil First 🌾Bloom the toasted sesame oil with fresh ginger and minced garlic for 30 seconds before adding other sauce ingredients to deepen and amplify aromatic flavors.
- High Heat Searing is Key 🔥Use medium-high to high heat when searing tofu to develop a golden, caramelized crust that adds textural contrast and locks in flavor.
- Finish with Fresh Ginger and Sriracha 🌶️Reserve a small amount of grated ginger and sriracha to stir in during the last 30 seconds of cooking for bright, fresh heat that doesn't get cooked off.
