A delightful and flavorful tofu dish with a tangy lemongrass marinade, perfect for any meal.
Prepare the marinade by combining the soy sauce, minced lemongrass, grated ginger, minced garlic, and brown sugar in a mixing bowl.
Mix the marinade thoroughly to ensure the sugar dissolves completely for a balanced flavor.
Slice the tofu into slabs and press them to remove excess moisture.
Pressing the tofu helps it absorb the marinade better and improves its texture.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and cook the tofu slabs until golden brown on both sides.
Flip the tofu carefully to maintain its shape and achieve an even crust.
Place the cooked tofu into the marinade and let it soak for at least 20 minutes.
Allowing the tofu to marinate after cooking enhances its flavor.
Serve the tofu warm or at room temperature, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.
Pair with a side of rice or salad for a complete meal.
