Tofu Terriaki

I love Tofu... and I always seem to come up with great ways to make it so that it's not boring. To be honest, nothing that I make is ever boring, but you get the idea. If you love terriaki, then you will love this dish. Check it out and let me know what you think!

Ingredients:
- 1/2 package firm tofu, drained and chopped
- soy sauce
- light brown sugar
- Japanese rice wine
- ground ginger, either fresh or dried
- sesame oil
- peanut oil
- fresh cilantro

To Make:
In a shallow bowl, add in the diced tofu. Add 2 tablespoons of Rice wine, 3 tablespoons of light brown sugar, 1/4 cup of soy sauce, 1 tsp sesame oil, 1 tsp of ground ginger. Mix together and allow to marinate for about 15-20 minutes.

Heat a skillet with peanut oil. Transfer the tofu (not with the sauce) into the hot pan and saute for 3-5 minutes. Next add in the sauce and reduce to medium heat. Cover and let bubble.
Serve while hot over white or coconut rice. Top with fresh cilantro.
