Steps

1

Wrap the firm tofu in a double layer of paper towels. Leave it for a while to drain the excess moisture.
2

If you leave the paper towel wrapped tofu on a sieve over a container to catch the water that comes out of it, cover and leave in the refrigerator for about half a day, you'll be able to drain water.
3

Mix the teriyaki sauce ingredients together.
4

Cut the drained tofu into the size you want, and sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.
5

Heat up a frying pan and put in some vegetable oil. Coat the tofu pieces from Step 4 with katakuriko, and put into the frying pan (make sure the tofu pieces don't stick together).
6

Coat all sides of the cut tofu with katakuriko.
7

Cover the frying pan with a lid and let the tofu cook for a while, then turn the pieces over.
8

Cook for a while with the lid off. Mix up the sauce from Step 3 again and pour it into the pan. Turn the tofu pieces over to coat with the sauce.
9

Since the tofu pieces are coated with katakuriko, the sauce will become thickened.
10

Transfer to serving plates and sprinkle with chopped green onion.
