Instructions

• Drain the tofu and gently remove it from its packaging onto a large plate. Carefully slice the tofu into 1.5 cm slabs widthwise, then use the palm of your hand to gently fan the slices out across the plate.
• Drizzle the soy sauce (45 ml) and sesame sauce (30 ml) evenly over the tofu. Garnish with the sliced scallions and sesame seeds (2 tsp) and serve immediately.
• Tightly cover any leftovers and refrigerate for up to 2 days. Enjoy cold straight from the fridge, or reheat by microwaving in 30-second increments until warmed through.
