      The recipe itself is in german but I did a quick translation.

      Ingredients

      Sticky Sesame Tofu

      • 200 g smoked tofu (we got natural tofu)
      • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
      • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
      • 1 tsp sesame oil
      • 1/4 tsp. chili flakes (or Tabasco/chili powder)
      • 2 tbsp cornstarch
      • 1 tbsp. sesame seeds
      • 2 tbsp. sesame oil (for frying)

      Sweet and Sour Sauce

      • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
      • 3 tbsp. soy sauce
      • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
      • 1 tablespoon maple syrup
      • 2 tbsp brown sugar (or coconut blossom sugar)
      • 1 garlic clove (pressed or 1/3TL garlic flakes)
      • 1 piece of ginger (finely chopped or 1/3TL ginger powder)

      Side dishes

      • 200 g jasmine rice
      • 1 broccoli (divided into florets) Toppings
      • Spring onions (cut into rings)
      • Roasted sesame seeds
      • Roasted peanuts

      Instructions

      1. Whisk together soy sauce, maple syrup, sesame oil and chili flakes to make a marinade. Remove tofu from package, wrap in a dish towel* and squeeze out liquid. Then cut into cubes, mix into a large and shallow bowl with the marinade and let sit in it for at least 15 minutes. Add cornstarch and sesame seeds and mix everything together well*.

      2. Puree all ingredients for sweet and sour sauce with a blender until smooth and season to taste if necessary.

      3. Prepare rice according to package directions. Cook broccoli*.

      4. Heat sesame oil in a skillet and sauté tofu over medium heat for 8-10 minutes, until tofu is golden brown. Optionally, add some of the cooked broccoli and sauté for another 3-4 minutes.

      5. Add the sweet and sour sauce, stir everything together and sauté for about 2-3 minutes until the sauce has thickened.

      6. Serve together with rice and broccoli. Top with toasted sesame seeds, peanuts and spring onions.

      Notes

      • Or paper towels.
      • You can put the marinated tofu in a freezer bag along with the starch and sesame seeds and toss everything well. But it also works with a spoon or your hands.
      • The broccoli can be prepared as you like, for example boil or fry.
