I'm not a big fan of tofu, but this recipe changed my mind. The ginger-cilantro sauce was so good, it made the tofu taste amazing. I'll definitely be making this again.

This was my first time cooking tofu, and it turned out great! The sauce was delicious and the tofu was crispy and tender. I'll definitely be making this again.

This recipe was a little too spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it. I think next time I'll use less chili peppers.

I've made this recipe several times now, and it's always a hit. The ginger-cilantro sauce is so flavorful and versatile. I've used it on tofu, chicken, and even fish.
