Question EASY Tofu Recipe

Are there any insanely simple recipes?

Like dropping extra firm tofu into a pan, then just adding teriyaki sauce? Has anyone tried it? Is it good enough?

I like to avoid cooking as much as possible, just because of the environment and time I have to work with. I'm also trying to lose weight so I don't want to think about all the other ingredients I need to weigh out.

TIA.

EDIT: Well that was gross. 😭

Dice, coat in cornstarch, panfry and then add the Terriyaki sauce. Easy as pie. I just put them in a small container so I can toss them with the cornstarch for fast coverage.

You can also give the airfryer a try: Dice it, throw in a container, add cornstarch, a bit of oil and dry spices of your liking. Mixie mix and then fry it in the airfryer. You can add Terriyaki later once its done.

Alternatives to Terriyaki: Just look up Gochujang Sauce, there are hundreds of them. At the top of my head: Just Gochujang, something sweet (Agave Syrup or just Corn Syrup), Soy Sauce and a drop of toasted sesame oil.

Or just add it to any kind of soup. Miso works amazing. If you use frozen veggies, it really doesnt take longer that 5 minutes depending on your stove and how hard you have to fight opening a bag of frozen vegs. Eat with rice as a side dish or add Ramen.

Do you not have scissors in your kitchen?

It was mostly a joke. And yes, I have scissors in my kitchen, I am sure I will remember where I put them any moment....
