Sticky Miso Tofu that's crispy on the outside and pillowy firm inside, coated in a flavorful miso sauce. This dish is easy to make and pairs perfectly with rice and vegetables.
1: Preheat the oven to 180°C fan forced or 200°C conventional. Open your packet of tofu and drain out the excess liquid. Using clean hands, break chunks off the tofu to create bite sized pieces.
2: Add the tofu into a bowl along with the cornstarch, salt and pepper and toss well to coat.
3: Spread the tofu out onto a lined baking tray, ensuring each piece does not touch or overlap. Spray generously with neutral oil and bake for 20 minutes or until golden and crispy.
4: In the meantime, fry the garlic in a splash of oil over medium heat.
5: Add in the brown sugar, soy sauce, vinegar and miso.
6: Mix the water and cornstarch together then pour it into the pan. Allow mixture to bubble, stirring frequently until thickened.
7: Turn off the heat and stir through the sesame oil and chilli oil.
8: Add in the baked tofu and stir well to coat in the sauce.
9: Transfer onto a plate and garnish with sesame seeds and green onions. Enjoy immediately.
