Preparation Steps

  1. Step 1/4

    In a medium size bowl place the pressed and cubed tofu. Add in low sodium soy sauce and toss to coat.

  2. Step 2/4

    While the tofu is air-frying and has about 5 minutes left, in a pot over high heat, mix all the sauce ingredients, except the cornstarch slurry.

  3. Step 3/4

    Bring to a boil and boil for about 1 minute, then reduce heat to medium low. Add in the cornstarch slurry and whisk vigorously until dissolved into the sauce.

  4. Step 4/4

    Let it cook for about 3 to 4 minutes until the sauce begins to thicken. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly. Taste a little bit to decide if you need more sweetener or more liquid aminos.
