Ingredients

For the tofu
  • 1 (15 oz) block extra firm tofu
  • 1/4 cup (35g) all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt
  • spray cooking oil
For the honey coriander sauce
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon ground coriander
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • Diamond Crystal kosher salt, to taste

Instructions 

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F convection, or 425°F standard.
  2. Slice the block of extra firm tofu crosswise into 8 pieces, I like to angle my knife so I cut each piece thicker on one side and thinner on the other.
  3. In a small dish, toss 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour and 1/4 teaspoon of kosher salt together. Gently toss each piece of tofu in this so that they are well coated.
  4. Spray a baking sheet with a light layer of spray cooking oil, add the tofu then cover them with another thin layer of the spray oil.
  5. Bake for 20 minutes, then flip and bake another 10 minutes, or until golden on both sides.
  6. In a small saucepan over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of chili powder, 1/4 teaspoon of ground ginger, 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of ground coriander and salt to taste. Give this a swirl and let it lightly sizzle for one minute. Then pour in 3 tablespoons of honey, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and the juice from one lime. Swirl to combine. Add 1 1/2 teaspoons of cornstarch.
  7. Let the sauce simmer for 30-60 seconds, until thickened. Add splashes of warm water if the sauce breaks or needs to be thinned out a bit. Taste and season as needed.
  8. When the tofu is ready, toss it with the sauce. Serve warm!
