Heat some cooking oil in the pan.Once the oil is hot, then shallow fry the tofu till both sides are golden and crispy. Transfer the tofu into a plate for future usage.
Step 3
Heat the same pan over medium high heat. Add in the sesame oil. Once hot, stir-fry the garlic, and chopped spring onions. Add the soy sauce, cooking wine, brown sugar, and water. Leave to come to a boil, around 2-3 minutes. Add the dried chiles.
