Tofu with Garlic and Green Onions

MAKES: 2 Servings

7 ounces/200 grams of firm tofu (about 1/2 of an average sized package), dried off

1 tablespoon of cornstarch

1/2 tablespoon of oil

2 cloves of garlic, finely minced

3 tablespoons of soy sauce

1 tablespoon sesame oil for topping

1/4 cup of chopped green onion

2 tablespoons of sesame seeds

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Cut the tofu into bite sized cubes about 1/2 inch in size then toss the tofu cubes in the cornstarch and line them up on a lined baking sheet.

Bake for 20 minutes, take out of the oven and flip the tofu over, bake for an additional 15-20 minutes or until the tofu is a light golden brown.

When the tofu has just a few minutes left, heat the sesame oil in a skillet. Add in the garlic and sauté for 3 minutes. Add in the soy sauce and stir.

Once the tofu is done, toss it into the garlic and soy sauce mixture until fully coated.

Top with the green onion and sesame seeds.
