Yield Serves 2 to 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

Tofu Triangles:
1 carton firm tofu, drained
2 tablespoons peanut or sesame oil, for frying
2 scallions including the greens, thinly sliced on the diagonal
1 tablespoon toasted white or black sesame seeds
The Creamy Nut Butter Sauce:
1/4 cup regular soy sauce
1 tablespoon tamari
1/4 cup sesame paste, peanut butter, or cashew butter
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons white or light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes or chili oil
2 scallions, finely chopped
1/3 cup water or stock
Pinch salt

Steps:

  • 1. Slice the tofu crosswise into scant 1/ 2-inch slabs, then cut each slab into 2 triangles. Blot with paper towels.
  • 2. Heat a large cast-iron or nonstick skillet and add the oil. When hot, add the tofu and fry over medium-high heat until golden. Turn and cook on the second side.
  • 3. Meanwhile, combine all the ingredients for the sauce in a small food processor and puree until smooth. Taste for salt and add a little extra, if needed.
  • 4. When the tofu is done, pour in half the sauce and cook until bubbling and partially reduced.
  • 5. Turn off the heat, scatter the scallions and sesame seeds over the top, and bring to the table.

I love that this dish can be made ahead of time. I often make the tofu triangles and sauce the night before, and then just reheat them when I'm ready to serve.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover tofu. I always have a block of tofu in my fridge, so it's nice to have a recipe that I can use it in.

The tofu triangles were a bit too crispy for my taste, but the sauce was delicious. I'll try baking them next time instead of frying.
