Instructions

Cut the tofu into 2 cm cubes. Drain on paper towels to remove excess moisture.
Heat a little oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the cubed tofu and sauté gently for a few minutes, until lightly browned on all sides.
Pour the Mabo sauce into the pan with the golden tofu. Simmer over a low heat for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to allow the tofu to soak up the sauce.
Place the hot plain rice in bowls. Top with tofu in Mabo sauce.
Cut the spring onions into thin slices and sprinkle over the tofu. Sprinkle the dish with sesame seeds and add a pinch of shichimi for a little spice. Serve hot.

Recipe notes

If you prefer a crispier texture, you can squeeze the tofu before cooking to remove even more water, then fry lightly before adding the Mabo sauce.

This dish goes perfectly with miso soup or a small Japanese salad for a balanced meal.
