Keto Spicy Glazed Crispy Air Fryer Tofu
Spicy Glazed Crispy Air Fryer Tofu will be your new favorite way to consume tofu. Extra crispy and soft on the inside, these small cubes of firm tofu coated in a spicy sambal glaze, once crispy they are tossed in savory sesame seed oil and a pinch of kosher salt for a flavor that goes the extra mile.
How to Make It
Step 1
Place cubes of tofu on a plate lined heavily with paper towels to absorb excess moisture.
Step 2
Place several more layers of paper towels on top of the tofu and then top with a heavy pan like a cast-iron skillet. Keep the cast iron on the tofu for at least 15 minutes.
Step 3
Remove the cast-iron skillet from the tofu and slice each square of tofu into 16 even pieces.
Step 4
Place tofu in a bowl and toss with the remaining ingredients.
Step 5
Place half of the tofu into the bottom of an air fryer basket. Use a spoon to separate them so they are not touching each other. Set the fryer for 375 F for 15 minutes.
Step 6
Repeat with the remaining tofu cooking them for 15 minutes as well.
Step 7
Place the cooked tofu in a medium-sized mixing bowl and toss with sesame seed oil and ⅛ tsp kosher salt. Serve hot and crispy!
