Nori Wrapped Teriyaki Tofu Recipe
This easy tofu recipe is perfect for meal prep or as an easy dinner idea. The tofu gets soooo crispy from the corn flour/starch and then super sticky and glazed from the simple teriyaki sauce!
Ingredients
Tofu ingredients:
- 300 g extra firm tofu
- ⅓ cup cornflour/starch
- 1 nori sheet
- 3 tablespoon olive oil or neutral oil of choice
Sauce ingredients:
- 3 tablespoon tamari/soy sauce
- 2 tablespoon brown sugar
- 2 garlic gloves minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger powder
- 1 tablespoon maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
Toppings:
- Sesame seeds
- Chives
Instructions
- Cut the tofu into strips as seen in the video. Do not pat the tofu dry, wetter the better so the nori can stick to it!
- Use scissors to cut 1-2cm wide strips of nori. The perfect length is half of a nori sheet. Wrap around the centre of the tofu, if it doesn’t stick in place dab some water to help it stick.
- Add the cornflour over a wide bowl or plate then coat the tofu pieces.
- Bring a large pan to medium heat with the olive oil then fry the tofu on each side for a few minutes until crispy, then remove from the pan.
- Turn the pan to medium/low heat then add all the sauce ingredients and let reduce for 1 - 2 minutes. Once it begins to thicken add your tofu back in and toss until the tofu is fully coated in the sauce.
- Top off with the sesame and chives and enjoy!!
