Ingredients
Spicy Tokwang Adobo Ingredients
- 1/2 kilogram tofu cut into squares
- 3 cloves Garlic chopped
- 1/3 Cup Soy Sauce
- 1/3 Cup Vinegar
- 2 pieces bay leaves
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed black pepper

Instructions
- In a frying pan over medium-high heat, heat enough oil for frying. Add the tofu and fry the tofu until golden brown on all sides. Remove from the pan into a wire rack over paper towels. Repeat with remaining tofu as needed.
- Meanwhile, on another burner with a wok over medium heat, heat about 2 tablespoons oil. Add garlic and saute until just golden. Add soy sauce, vinegar, bay leaves, black pepper, chili garlic sauce, and siling labuyo. Bring to a boil then lower heat to a simmer. Simmer until the sauce is thickened slightly and the vinegar has lost its raw taste.
- Using scissors, cut the tofu in half. Toss tofu with the spicy adobo sauce and serve while hot.
