Honey garlic tofu - oven baked tofu tossed in a sweet and salty garlic sauce. Serve with steamed broccoli and rice for an easy and healthy vegetarian meal.

We love cooking tofu for a quick and easy meal and I'm always looking for new ways to prepare it.
This honey garlic sauce is made from pantry ingredients and it has a perfect blend of salty, sweet and garlic flavours. I love crisping tofu up in the oven, but if you would like to cook it quicker, you could slice and pan fry the tofu in a bit of oil first.
How to make honey garlic tofu
Preheat your oven to 425℉.
Cut the tofu into cubes about 1 cm x 1 cm. Pat them down with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture, and then arrange on a baking sheet.
Bake for 20 minutes.
While the tofu is baking, prepare the sauce.
Whisk the corn starch in the water, then all add all the ingredients into a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Let the sauce boil for a minute or two, then reduce the heat to a simmer and allow the sauce to cook while the tofu finishes baking.
Remove the tofu from the oven and place in a large bowl. Add the honey garlic sauce to the tofu and toss to cover.
Serve with rice and steamed broccoli, or any other vegetables of your choice.
