1
Drain the tofu and keep it between two towels and place a heavy object on top for about 10 minutes to remove excess liquid.
2
Cut the tofu into cubes.
3
Heat the sesame oil in a nonstick pan over medium high heat. Add the tofu and saute until golden brown.
4
Add the minced ginger and garlic to the pan, saute for about 1 minute until fragrant.
5
To the pan, add the soy sauce, vinegar, honey, sriracha sauce, black pepper, red chili flakes, and water. Cook until the sauce is reduced and thickens to your desired consistency.
6
While the sauce is reducing, in a separate pan, saute the bell peppers, broccoli, and carrots until they are tender crisp.
7
Mix the sauteed vegetables into the tofu pan, making sure everything is well-coated with the sauce.
8
Garnish your Sweet-and-Spicy Crunchy Sesame Tofu with sesame seeds and serve hot.
