Air Fryer Crispy Tofu Recipe
Ingredients:
1 pound extra firm tofu
¼ cup shoyu
¼ cup brown sugar
2 garlic cloves, finely minced
½ inch piece of ginger, sliced
1 tablespoon cornstarch
Directions:
1. For the tofu: Remove the tofu from the packaging and drain the water. Press tofu using a tofu press. If you don’t have a tofu press, place tofu on a paper towel set on a plate. Place another piece of paper towel over the tofu and place a heavy bottom pan, like a cast iron pan, over the tofu. Allow excess liquids to drain for at least 15 minutes.
2. For the marinade: Add shoyu, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger to a small bowl. Mix until well combined.
3. Once tofu has been pressed, cut tofu into bite sized cubes. Place tofu on a cutting board and cut your block in half height wise. Stack the two pieces back on each other and cut into 4 strips lengthwise and 4 strips width wise.
4. Place the cubed up tofu in a baking dish or large bowl. Pour the marinade over and gently toss to combine. Allow to marinate for 15 minutes.
5. Preheat the air fryer to 400F.
6. When you are ready to cook, sprinkle cornstarch over the tofu and toss to combine.
7. Place tofu in the air fryer in a single layer. Cook for 10-20 minutes or until golden brown, tossing the basket halfway through cooking. ENJOY!

How to make super CRISPY TOFU

RECIPE
For this recipe you'll need:
• 250gr firm tofu
• 2tsp paprika powder
• 3tbsp cornstarch
• salt & pepper
• sunflower oil for frying
Start by pressing as much water out of the tofu as possible. If you have a tofu press, use that to press the whole block of tofu for 30 minutes and then cut it into bite size pieces. If you don't own a tofu press like me, cut the tofu into pieces first and then press them between a towel and cutting bord and put a heavy weight on top for 30 minutes. This way you can get way more water out of the tofu.
After the tofu has been pressed we'll add the toppings. Put the tofu in a bowl and add the cornstarch, the paprika powder and the salt and pepper and mix carefully until all the pieces are evenly coated. You can add any herbs you like at this point, I keep my seasonings really simple since I usually make a sauce to go with the tofu (see sauce recipes above).
Add a small layer of oil to a pan and heat this up until the oil is hot. When you put the tofu in the oil, the oil should start to bubble and that is when you know it's hot enough. If you put the tofu in the oil before it's hot, it won't get as crispy.
Fry the pieces for about 10 minutes on medium heat until the tofu is completely crispy (flipping the pieces after 5 minutes).
Once the tofu is done, take it out of the oil and let it leak out on a bit of kitchen paper towel. That's it! You can eat the tofu like this with some rice and veggies or make a sauce to go with it ( see recipe links for sauces above).
