This is a light lunch dish I made up plainly because I love tofu and I love Sriracha sauce and yes, I made my own Sriracha sauce and I can also make my own tofu but in this case, I didn’t make the tofu but bought it 😉  Tofu is one food you either ❤️ it or hate it … most non-Asians normally don’t fancy it as they find it tasteless/bland but it is how you cook it that makes the difference so keep following my journey with Tofu and you’ll see the various delicious ways you can enjoy it 😜

You will need a piece of 6″ x 3″ x 6″ block of fresh, plain tofu … for this dish, a block like this is probably good to serve between 2 – 4 people, depending on how many slices tofu you serve per pax  … slice them into 1″ thick slices or into big cubes, per your own preference …

Marinade ingredients : 3 Tbsp of Sriracaha sauce (use more or less depending on your taste for spiciness) + 1 Tbsp light soy sauce + 1 Tsp dark soy sauce + 1 tsp sugar + 1 tsp sesame oil … mix all these ingredients together and marinate the sliced tofu for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator …

Heat up a skillet with some Canola oil until hot … then pan-grill the marinated tofu slices until sauce is caramelised and tofu is pan-grilled to golden on both sides

Dish tofu out onto serving plate … pour balance of marinade into pan and cook for a minute to caramelised it a little and then coat grilled tofu pieces with it and serve up with salad of your choice … this can be served as a starter/appetiser or as a light lunch …  enjoy 🍴  NOTE : this can also be served up as one of your many dishes in a Chinese-style dinner 🎎
