1

Drain the tofu and pat it dry using paper towels.

2

Slice the tofu in cubes of approx. 2½cm. Place them in a large container with the corn flour. Close the lid and shake the container so that all the tofu cubes are well coated.

3

Add a generous amount of cooking oil to a large pan, ensuring you coat the entire surface. Fry the tofu cubes over a medium-high heat until golden and crispy. Remove the tofu from the pan and drain on paper towels. Remove any excess oil left in the pan.

4

To make the sauce, finely chop the spring onion and garlic. Mix the soya sauce, sesame oil, 1 teaspoon of sesame seeds, sugar, peppercorns, gochujang, ketchup, honey and water together in a large bowl. Then add the spring onion and garlic to the mixture.

5

Pour the sauce in the pan and heat it over a medium-high heat for approx. 5 minutes or until the sauce has thickened. Once the sauce is thicker, turn off the heat. Add the fried tofu and stir until all tofu cubes are coated with sauce.

6

Steam the broccoli and reheat the rice.

7

Divide the tofu, broccoli and rice between four bowls and sprinkle with the sesame seeds.
