Some nutritional facts about tofu:-

INGREDIENTS
- Organic Non-GMO Hard Tofu
- Teriyaki Sauce (For healthier option-choose a low salt version.)
- Coconut Oil (I used coconut oil for the extra punch of coconutty taste. This can be substituted with other oil.)
METHOD
- Cut the tofu block 2-3 thinner pieces. Depending on how thick your tofu block is and how thick you want your tofu steak to be.
- Marinate the tofu in Teriyaki sauce for 2-3 hours. Flipping side in between so that the tofu is marinated on both sides. The longer you leave the tofu to marinate the better.
- Heat up a frying pan. Put some coconut oil in the pan.
- Fry your tofu steak on both sides when the coconut oil is warm enough.
- Serve with your favorite salad, potato or sweet potato chips. Any side dishes that you like.
