This is another common dish on Korean menus. It's popular because it is super healthy, costs nothing to make and so delicious. There are many variations but we like this version because the layer of corn starch adds a little crunchy texture. We really can't stop making this dish. Hope you like it too.
Ingredients for Soy Seasoning:
4T soy sauce
1t minced garlic,
1/2 t red chilli powder,
2t sesame seeds,
1/2 T honey,
1/2 T sugar,
4T chopped green onion,
1/2T white rice wine (or any white cooking wine),
1T water
1/2 T rice vinegar
1/2 t sesame oil
Other Ingredients:
1 package of firm tofu
3T corn starch
3T flour
2-3 T cooking oil
extra sesame seeds and chopped green onions for garnish
1. Mix all the ingredients for soy seasoning in a bowl. Set aside.
2. Pat the tofu dry with a paper towel. Slice half lengthwise then into 1/2 inch slices.
3. Mix the corn starch and flour in a shallow bowl. Then dredge the tofu slices in the mixture. Shake off the excess.
4. Heat oil in a fry pan. When pan is hot place the tofu in the pan. Heat for 3-4 minutes or until the bottoms are golden brown.
5. Flip the tofu slices and cook the other side until it is golden brown. If the pan is too dry add an extra tablespoon of oil.
6. Spoon all the soy seasoning onto the tofu slices. Reduce heat and simmer until liquid is mostly gone.
7. Put on serving plate and garnish with extra green onion slices and some sesame seeds.
Enjoy while it's still warm! It's great with rice and kimchi or with an ice cold beer.

Oh this looks awesome! I hope you guys do japchae in the future :)
I make something rather similar, only I dip the tofu in soy sauce/rice vinegar first and add nutritional yeast to the flour mixture. SO good!

Hello girls,
I made this today for lunch, and it was great!!! I am in love, and will definitely make again. Probably today for my husband when he comes home from work. I did not use corn starch, and I used sake (you wrote rice wine, and I have sake at home). Check out the pic...

I made this for lunch today, and it was DELISH! Paired it with sushi rice, steamed carrots, snow peas, and shiitakes. A comforting, flavorful meal especially with a glass of iced jasmine tea. The step-by-step photos made it easy to make, too. Looking forward to more!
I made this tonight, and it was some of the best tofu I have ever eaten, and definitely the best I've prepared (stopped trying to cook it years ago). Thanks for posting it!
making this for supper tonight!!!

Finally, this recipe, I've been wondering how to make this type of tofu for a while now.

Thanks!! Keep up the recipes, they're great. Do you know how to make the soybean soup they give out for free at AYCE BBQ places?
I keep making this! I have never enjoyed tofu anything, but this almost tastes meaty!
I cannot wait to try this recipe, I have tried tons of tofu recipes only to be disappointed. I am positive this will be a good one. I LOVE korean food too. Thanks for sharing!
I tried this months ago and LOVED it and then couldn't find your site when I wanted to make it again! I just found it again after searching for half an hour and am sooo excited to eat it again tonight! Thank you!
Yes that is a good recipe. I've use it twice and did it awesome. My friends also liked it.
I can't tell you know many times I've made this for my family. My kids and husband love it -- and we are very much omnivores. Thank you so much for posting this recipe!
