Cut the tofu into 16 equal portions (triangle or rectangular shape)
Add oil in a pan or a wok and heat it up on medium-high heat
When the oil temperature reaches about 200 F, add tofu into the pan and fry on both sides for about 5 minutes or until the outside is slightly hardened and the color of tofu turns light yellow-brown.
Take tofu out and let it rest for about 5 minutes
After 5 minutes, fry the tofu for the second time until it becomes golden brown and crispy on the outside. It took me about 2 minutes more
To make the garlicky soy sauce, add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce in a clean bowl, 1 teaspoon of grated garlic, 1/4 teaspoon of sesame oil, 1/4 teaspoon of black vinegar, and finely chopped cilantro. Mix everything together.
To make chili sweet & sour sauce, in a clean bowl, add 1 tablespoon of ketchup, 1 teaspoon of white vinegar, 1 teaspoon of sugar, 1/4 – 1/2 teaspoon of sriracha, a dash of grated ginger and a dash of salt. - Mix well and make sure the sugar is all dissolved.
