, followed by two coatings of cornstarch, achieved by carefully stirring the pieces in a bowl. Then all that was left was to air fry. Into the basket they went for about 11 minutes, and out they came as audibly crispy cubes. No air fryer? I offer instructions on using a skillet instead.If making tofu in the air fryer is the only thing you get out of this recipe, then great. From there, you can use it with your favorite sauce, dip or dressing.
. I combined orange zest and juice, cider vinegar, honey, ginger and red pepper flakes in a bowl and popped it into the microwave while the tofu was in the air fryer. With very little effort, I got a sticky, sweet, spicy and tart sauce that lacquered the tofu in a glossy glaze. Heck, if the sauce is your only takeaway from this recipe, I’d be thrilled with that, too. Pair it with whatever protein or vegetable you like.
