Glazed Cashew Tofu

The original recipe directed that the tofu be sliced into cutlets. I prefer to cube the tofu so that more surface is exposed to the super-tasty glaze. The addition of the cashews was my idea, just to add crunch and to add to the already nutty taste from the sesame oil. Read more Using previously-frozen tofu results in a more "meaty" texture.

- 1 tsp sesame oil shopping list

How to make it
- Cut tofu into 2" cubes or crosswise into 1/4-inch thick slices . (The cutlets are good for sandwiches!)
- Combine oils, honey, soy sauce and vinegar, then heat mixture slowly in a large skillet.
- Arrange tofu cubes (or cutlets) in the skillet, then flip to coat with sauce on all sides. Fry tofu over moderately high heat until the tofu is golden and crisp. Add cashews - mix to coat with glaze. Serve Cashew Tofu garnished with green onions.

I make a very similar dish called "Grilled Tofu" but it doesn't have the green onions and the cashews in it. My son says he loves both recipes and to bring this one in to a regular rotation! Thanks!
