Ingredients
- 1 block  (450g/1lb) extra firm tofu
- 2 heaped tablespoon cornflour
- 1.5 teaspoon sesame oil
- 5 garlic cloves, minced
- Inch fresh ginger, finely chopped
- 3 tablespoon sriracha
- 3 tablespoon brown sugar
- 2.5 tablespoon soy sauce
- 175ml/ 3/4 cup water
- 1/2-1 teaspoon chilli flakes (optional, for extra spice)
- Sliced spring onion/scallions
- Sesame seeds

Instructions
1. Cut or break tofu into 1 inch chunks. Breaking it will give you a more rugged edge and fry up crispier. Cut into strips then break into pieces. It will make around 30 chunks.
2. Toss tofu in the cornflour and heat up a tablespoon of oil on medium heat. Add the tofu and fry for 5-6 minutes until golden and crispy. Transfer to a bowl.
3. In the same pan heat the sesame oil and then add the ginger and fry until fragrant. Add the sriracha, brown sugar, soy sauce, water and chilli flakes if using.
4. Increase the heat until simmering and cook for around 30 seconds until thickened. Add the tofu back in to heat through and then serve!
5. Top with sliced spring onions and sesame seeds.
