Dubu Jorim

Ingredients:

• 1 pack firm tofu

• 1 tbsp canola oil, for frying

Sauce:

• 3 tbsp soy sauce

• 3 tbsp water

• 1 tbsp sesame oil

• 1 tsp sugar

• 1 tsp gochugaru

• 1 tsp sesame seed

• 1 clove garlic, minced

• 2 scallion stalks, chopped

Directions:

1. Cut the tofu into 1/4-inch pieces and pat them dry with paper towels (the dryer, the better!).

2. Put your frying pan on a high heat. Add some oil into the pan and fry the tofu on both-sides, until golden brown. Mix water, soy sauce, gochugaru, sugar, minced garlic, sesame seeds, sesame oil, and chopped scallions in a mixing bowl.

3. Place a frying pan on high heat. Pour the braising sauce mix into the frying pan and let it boil away, for about 6 minutes, stirring occasionally.

4. Once the sauce reduces to a thick consistency, put the fried tofu pieces into the pan and give it a thorough coating.

5. Serve with rice or as a banchan. Enjoy!
