    Cut the tofu diced.
    KnifeCutting board
  3. 3
    Heat the wok over high heat until very hot, then add the oil.
    ⚙ Pan-fryingStoveWok
    💡A very hot wok and a few vegetables at a time: crowded vegetables release water and steam instead of charring, and lose their crunch.
  4. 4
    Sear the tofu 10 minutes, turning as little as possible, until golden on all sides, and transfer to a clean plate.
    Stove
  5. 5
    Add the garlic and ginger and stir-fry 1 minute, until fragrant.
    Stove
    💡The garlic and ginger go in last: in the heat of the wok they burn within seconds.
  6. 6
    Return the tofu to the wok.
  7. 7
    Add the soy sauce, sesame oil and honey and stir until everything is evenly coated.
  8. 8
    Serve immediately with rice, sprinkled with Sesame.
