Crispy Tofu in Teriyaki Sauce Video Recipe

In the video you can see I’m not using a non-stick pan to make these oil free tofu stakes.

While you can use a regular pan it’s much easier to use a non-stick as with a regular pan you need to keep turning and jiggling the pan around so that the tofu doesn’t stick.

It’s much easier to get crispy oil free tofu in a non-stick but I’m on the road at the moment, travelling minimally so using what is available.

Tofu isn’t bland at all when you prepare it like this. It gives a great texture and is a sponge for the sweet spicy sour teriyaki sauce. You can just use some teriyaki sauce out of a jar but it will give a different flavour to this fresh teriyaki and it won’t be as healthy.

Yield: 4 servings crispy oil free tofu Crispy Tofu Teriyaki - oil free Print Make amazing tasting tofu without any oil. This recipe makes crispy tofu that has no added oil. Most tofu is cooked in oil so it's not healthy at all, but this is a great way to get all the protein from tofu in a healthy no oil recipe. Prep Time 5 minutes Cook Time 5 minutes Total Time 10 minutes Ingredients ¼ Onion

2-3 cloves Garlic

1″ Ginger, peeled and sliced

2 tbsp Soy sauce or tamari

2 tbsp Coconut sugar

¼ tsp Turmeric

¼ tsp Cayenne pepper

1 tbsp Rice vinegar

1 tbsp Water

7oz / 200g firm Tofu

2 tbsp Sesame seeds Instructions Put everything apart from tofu and sesame into a blender and blend until smooth. Cut the tofu into strips about ½ cm thick. Place tofu in a hot pan and dry fry for 2-3 mins then flip. Non-stick frying pan is best but if you’re using a pan that isn’t non-stick then keep the tofu moving or add a bit of water to stop it sticking. Pour in the teriyaki sauce and then flip a few times until the sauce is very thick. Use the tofu to mop up all the delicious teriyaki sauce in the pan as you take it out. Notes Some don't like a sweet and sour flavour and if this is you take out the vinegar/lemon.

You can replace the rice vinegar with white vinegar or lemon juice.
