Steps:
- Drain and press a block of tofu, getting out as much liquid as possible. Then slice it into 1/4 inch thick slices.
- Mix together breading ingredients on a plate or shallow dish.
- Sprinkle tofu with some Bragg's Liquid Aminos or soy sauce or equivalent.
- Place the tofu in the breading and press down a little to make the coating stick to the tofu.
- Flip over and coat the other side.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Spread about 2 tbsp of oil on the bottom of a cookie sheet.
- Place the breaded tofu on the cookie sheet and bake at 400°F (200°C) for about 20 minutes.
- After 20 minutes, take out of the oven and flip with a spatula.
- Bake for an addtional 20 minutes on the other side.
- Place 2 tbsp of oil in the bottom of a skillet. (I highly recommend using an iron skillet for tofu. It always cooks perfectly and never sticks to my iron skillet).
- Place the coated tofu in the frying pan and turn heat to medium-high.
- Cook for about 3-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and crunchy.

SUPER SIMPLE SPICY FRIED TOFU
This recipe is adapted from a local tofu maker that frequents neighborhood farmers markets. It's vegetarian and vegan friendly and tastes great - even non-vegetarians love it! Spicy garlic sauce is a staple ingredient in many Vietnamese dishes and creates a spicy-sweet combination with the brown sugar.
