Instructions

  1. Preheat the air fryer to 380–390°F.
  2. Drain the tofu, wrap it in paper towels, and weigh it down with a heavy object for 5 minutes.
  3. Cut the tofu into cubes, season with salt and pepper, and air-fry for 15 minutes, or until golden all over, shaking and turning halfway.
  4. Whisk together the soy sauce, vegetarian oyster sauce, vinegar, sugar, sambal, vegetable stock and cornstarch in a bowl and set aside.
  5. Put the chili oil, dried chilies, garlic and ginger in a cold pan. Heat to medium-high and stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes until fragrant, stirring constantly so the garlic does not burn.
  6. Stir the sauce mixture again, pour it into the pan and stir right away. Simmer for 1 to 2 minutes until thickened to your liking.
  7. Add the air-fried tofu and toss to coat, cooking another 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat, sprinkle with sesame seeds, and serve.
