Ingredients

4 servings

650gfirm tofu

3 Tbspwhite miso paste

1 Tbsptamari

or soy sauce if that’s what you have

1 Tbsprice wine vinegar

1 Tbspsesame oil

1 Tbspmaple syrup

Instructions

Step 1

Slice the tofu into 4 “fillets” then thinly slice diagonally across, about 3mm apart as seen in the video. I used two wooden spoons on either side of the tofu to stop the knife from cutting the tofu in half.

Step 2

Mix together the rest of the ingredients to make your marinade and then marinate the tofu for a few hours or overnight. Make sure to get the marinade right in-between all the lil slices - I did so by placing the tofu over a round glass to expose all the slices

Step 3

Bake in the air fryer for 12 mins at 200C or for 25 - 30 mins at 200C in the oven

Step 4

Serve with rice, stir fried veggies and top with extra sesame oil, tamari, sesame seeds and spring onion
