Step 1
Open the tofu then slice it in half if it’s in one big block! Place between two plates or two saucepans and put something heavy on top to weigh it down so the water drains out. Let it sit for about 20 minutes then pat it dry and cut it into cubes
Step 2
Add the tofu into a large bowl then pour in the spicy olive oil ( you can use regular olive oil if you can’t find spicy ) garlic powder cumin red pepper flakes and ginger powder then toss to coat the tofu and place the tofu on a baking sheet . Bake in a 190 c fan oven for ten minutes then flip them over and bake a further 10 minutes or until crunchy
