Spicy Tofu Crumbles

Ingredients for Spicy Tofu Crumbles

• 450g extra-firm tofu, sliced 3/4 inch thick

• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

• 1 Fresno chilli, thinly sliced

• 45ml soy sauce

• 2 tablespoons mirin

• 2 tablespoons Sriracha or gochujang (Korean hot pepper paste)

• 2 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar

• 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil

How to make Spicy Tofu Crumbles

Arrange tofu slices in a single layer on a paper towel–lined plate and cover with a few more paper towels. Press down firmly on tofu with your hands to expel excess liquid.

Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet, preferably cast iron. Cook tofu, turning once, until browned, 7–10 minutes total. Transfer to a plate and let cool.

Meanwhile, whisk chilli, soy sauce, mirin, Sriracha, vinegar, sesame oil, and ginger in a medium bowl to combine.

Crumble tofu into small pieces and add to bowl; toss to combine.

Crumbles can be made 5 days ahead. Cover and chill.
