Directions
Step 1
Gently press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut it into even bite sized cubes. This helps the tofu hold its shape during cooking and allows better absorption of flavors later.
Step 2
Place the tofu pieces in a bowl, add flour, salt, and pepper, and toss carefully until all sides are lightly coated. The thin coating will create a crisp outer layer when cooked.
Step 3
Heat oil in a wide pan over medium heat. Arrange the tofu cubes in a single layer and cook, turning occasionally, until all sides become golden and slightly crunchy.
Step 4
Remove the tofu temporarily and in the same pan add garlic. Stir gently until aromatic, allowing the base flavor to develop without burning.
Step 5
Add chili, sugar, vinegar, and soy to the pan.
Step 6
Stir continuously to combine into a smooth glaze.
Step 7
Let the sauce simmer briefly until it thickens slightly.
Step 8
Return the tofu to the pan and toss carefully so every piece is coated evenly with the sauce. Cook for another few minutes until the glaze clings and becomes glossy. Serve warm for the best texture and flavor.
