Instructions
- Press the tofu well, using a tofu press or a clean tea towel weighted with something heavy, to remove the excess water.

- Cut the tofu into triangles or cubes and coat them in the remaining cornstarch.
- Heat the oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add the tofu in a single layer, without touching, and pan fry for a few minutes per side until golden and crispy.
