Korean Braised Tofu with Rice

Instructions

1. 1

   Cook the rice. Pat the tofu dry and cut into 1/2-inch-thick slabs.

2. 2

   Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high and pan-fry the tofu 3-4 minutes per side until golden.

3. 3

   Mix the soy sauce, chili flakes, sugar, minced garlic, sesame oil, half the green onions and 1/2 cup water.

4. 4

   Pour the sauce over the tofu, cover and simmer 6-8 minutes, spooning sauce over the top, until most of the liquid is absorbed.

5. 5

   Wilt the spinach in the pan for the last minute. Serve over rice with the remaining green onions. Leave out the chili flakes for a kid-friendly version.
