Ingredients

142 g chopped fried tofu balls (see notes in directions)
1 tbsp sesame oil
3 tbsp ketchup
1.5 tbsp sambal oelek chili
1 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tbsp liquid aminos or soy sauce
1.5 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp roasted sesame seeds

Instructions

Add sesame oil to pan and heat on medium.
Add tofu fried balls, ketchup, sambal chili, rice vinegar, liquid aminos and maple syrup to a pan. Fry for 5 minutes until roasted. Then add sesame seeds and roast for one more minute. Enjoy it as a snack, topped on salad or in stir fry.
Note: I used fried tofu balls by Tofu Superior, and cut each fried ball in half or 1/4 if you like them smaller. You can find this in your local East Asian Supermarket. I enjoy the chewy texture of the Tofu Superior brand. However, you can use any other tofu puff brands.
