Sticky panfried garlic lime tofu 🧄 ep. 1 of Tasty Tofu where I’m sharing all my tofu tips and tricks! This viral recipe has been loved for years by so many of you, I thought it was about time to make a video for it! 

Marinated to perfection, pan-fried, and then coated in a thick, sticky soy lime sauce, this tofu is so good with your fav veggies and jasmine rice. 

Save this reel for the recipe below or you can find the printable version on the blog (link is in my bio). Or comment ‘recipe’ and I’ll send you a direct link! 

Here’s what you’ll need:
◽️3 cloves garlic - grated
◽️1 lime - zest and juice
◽️1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
◽️2 tsp Sambal Oelek - or sub. Sriracha
◽️5 tbsp soy sauce - or coconut aminos for GF
◽️¼ cup water - or low sod. veggie broth
◽️¼ cup light brown sugar
◽️1 tbsp cornstarch

◽️15 oz super-firm or extra-firm tofu
◽️vegetable oil - for cooking
◽️1-2 green onions - sliced on the diagonal
◽️½ cup fresh cilantro - roughly chopped
◽️1 tbsp toasted white sesame seeds - garnish

To Make the Tofu:
◽️Mix all of the sauce ingredients together except for the cornstarch. ◽️Cut the drained block of tofu into ½” cubes. Pour half of the sauce onto the cubes to marinate for at least 20 minutes. Set the other half aside. ◽️Heat a nonstick skillet with 1-2 tsp of vegetable oil on medium heat. Add the marinated tofu to the hot pan (try not to add excess marinade) and stir fry until golden brown on all sides. Heat each side for about 1-2 minutes, then flip.

To Make the Garlic Lime Sauce:
◽️While the tofu cooks, pour the other half of the sauce into a small pot. Pour any remaining marinade in. Simmer on low heat for ~5 minutes. ◽️The sauce should reduce in volume. Transfer 2 tbsp of the sauce to a bowl and whisk in the 1 tbsp of cornstarch to form a slurry.
◽️Whisk the cornstarch slurry into the sauce and heat for 1-2 more minutes. It should thicken immediately. ◽️Reduce the heat of the tofu to low and add the sauce. Stir to coat the tofu.  ◽️Remove from the heat and serve warm with green onions, cilantro, and Jasmine rice. Enjoy!!
