Tofu Sisig

Step 1

Press the 14 oz tofu for 10 minutes, then cut into 1/2-inch cubes. Pat dry with paper towels.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix 3 tbsp soy sauce and 2 tbsp calamansi or lemon juice. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add tofu cubes in a single layer and cook until golden and crispy on all sides, about 8-10 minutes. Do not crowd the pan; work in batches if needed.

Step 4

Add 1 diced onion and 2 sliced red chilies to the skillet. Cook until onion is soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 5

Pour the soy-calamansi mixture over the tofu. Stir to coat and cook for 1-2 minutes until the sauce is absorbed and sizzling.

Step 6

Remove from heat. Stir in 3 chopped green onions and sprinkle with 1 tbsp sesame seeds. Serve hot over rice.
