This recipe was a bit too spicy for me, but I still enjoyed it. I would recommend using less Sriracha if you don't like spicy food.

The tofu was a bit too crispy for my liking, but the sauce was amazing. I'll definitely make this again, but I'll cook the tofu for a shorter amount of time.

This warm tofu dish with spicy garlic sauce was a hit! The tofu was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the sauce was flavorful and just the right amount of spicy. I served it over rice and it was a perfect weeknight meal.
