Instructions

  1. 1. Cut the tofu into 2 cm thick cubes. Important: Don't rinse it, just pat it dry.
  2. 2. Place the tofu cubes on a kitchen towel. Pat them dry from above to remove excess water.
  3. 3. Peel the 2 garlic cloves. Chop them finely, but not too small, so they don't burn.
  4. 4. Put honey, soy sauce, rapeseed oil and garlic into a small bowl. Stir the sauce until smooth.
  5. 5. Put the tofu cubes into a clean bowl. Drizzle them with 1 tbsp rapeseed oil.

  8. 8. Place the tofu cubes in the air fryer basket. Make sure they don't overlap.
  9. 9. Fry the tofu at 180 °C for 10 minutes. Turn the cubes after 5 minutes, until they are golden brown.
  10. 10. Take the tofu out of the air fryer. It should be golden brown and firm.
  11. 11. Put the tofu into a large bowl. Pour the honey-sesame sauce over it.

  13. 13. Toast the sesame seeds in a dry pan for 2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from the heat.
