Ingredients
  

Tofu Steak
  • 1 block firm tofu (pressed, sliced into steaks)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
Glaze
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tsp garlic (minced)
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Skillet
  • Spatula
  • Knife
  • Cutting Board
  • Plate

Method
 

  1. Press tofu to remove excess moisture, then slice into even steak-like pieces.
  2. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add tofu and cook until golden and slightly crisp on both sides.
  3. Mix honey, soy sauce, garlic, and pepper in a bowl to create the glaze.
  4. Pour glaze over tofu and cook until it thickens and coats each piece evenly.
  5. Turn tofu gently to ensure even coating and caramelization before serving.

Notes

Cook longer for crispier texture or shorter for softer tofu. Freezing tofu before cooking creates a firmer bite. Handle gently when flipping. Customize flavors with spices or sauces. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
