Step 1
Cut tofu into 1/2-inch cubes. Heat 2 tbsp oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.
Step 2
Pan-fry tofu in batches, turning occasionally, until all sides are golden and crispy, 8–10 minutes total. Transfer to a plate.
Step 3
In a small bowl, whisk peanut butter, lime juice, chili paste, 2 tbsp water, 1 tbsp soy sauce, and a pinch of salt until smooth.
Step 4
Arrange cucumber batons, pineapple cubes, egg halves, and crispy tofu on a plate or in a bowl.
Step 5
Drizzle peanut sauce generously over everything. Top with crushed peanuts if desired.
Step 6
Serve immediately while the tofu is still warm and crispy.
