Pan-Fried Tofu with Dipping Sauce

Preparation

1. Slice the tofu into 4 rectangle slices. Pat each piece dry with a paper towel.
2. Heat a frying pan with 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil on high heat.
3. Add the tofu and reduce to low-medium heat for 5 to 7 minutes or until golden brown.
4. Once the bottom of each piece is golden brown, turn it over and cook for another 5 to 7 minutes or until golden brown. 
5. To make the dipping sauce mince the garlic and chop the green onion. Combine minced garlic, chopped green onion, sugar or honey, reduced-sodium soy sauce, sesame oil and hot pepper flakes (optional) in a small mixing bowl.
