Step-by-Step Instructions
- Begin by pressing the extra-firm tofu to remove excess moisture. Wrap the tofu block in clean towels and place a heavy object on top. Allow it to rest for at least 30 minutes.
- Once the tofu is pressed, cut it into bite-sized cubes and coat them with cornstarch in a mixing bowl, ensuring every piece is nicely covered.
- In a separate bowl, combine soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and red pepper flakes. Whisk until well blended.
- Heat cooking oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the coated tofu pieces in a single layer and fry for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and crispy.
- Reduce heat to low, pour the prepared sauce over the tofu, and gently toss until fully coated. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Remove from heat and transfer to a serving plate. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions, and serve immediately.

Notes
Ensure you press your tofu thoroughly for the best texture. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
