Method

1. Press both types of tofu between paper towels for 5 minutes to remove excess moisture, then cut into 2cm cubes.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, grated ginger, and minced garlic to create the marinade.
3. Toss the tofu cubes in the marinade and let them sit for at least 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
4. Remove the tofu from the liquid, reserving the marinade, and dust the cubes lightly with cornstarch for a crispy finish.
5. Heat the olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat and sear the tofu for 6-8 minutes until golden and crispy.
6. Add the broccoli florets to the pan with a splash of water, cover, and steam-fry for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
7. Pour the remaining marinade over the tofu and vegetables, stirring for 1 minute until the sauce thickens into a glossy glaze.
8. Garnish with sesame seeds and serve immediately while hot.

Tips

• Mixing smoked and plain tofu adds a depth of flavor that mimics traditional BBQ techniques.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days; reheat in a pan to maintain the tofu's firmness.
