Sesame Tofu

Simple Sesame Tofu

I love it for my son because he’s difficult with eating protein, as most toddlers are! I at least know if i make this he’ll have it several days out of the week. I find myself having to pry the uncooked pieces out of his hand while i’m prepping this because he just can’t wait! It’s ok to have this raw marinated but it tastes much better when it’s cooked 🙂
Servings 4

Ingredients
  

  • 1 block of firm tofu
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • sesame seeds

Instructions
 

  • Slice tofu in half and half again and then large chunks. You can basically cut this any way you want. For toddlers, the more it resembles a finger food the more they enjoy it.
  • Place in a bowl with soy sauce and sesame oil and toss it to combine but be careful not to break up tofu. Place in refrigerator for 3o minutes. Toss gently here and there.
  • Heat a non-stick pan or a cast iron skillet. You can spray non stick pan with pam. Cook on medium high heat and flip until brown. You can cook it as long as you like. I usually do about 3-5 minutes and then flip.
  • Serve warm OR cold. I have the leftovers in a bag in the refrigerator. I love snacking on these leftovers cold!
