Peanut Sauce Tofu Bowl in 40 Minutes

Instructions:

1. Wrap the tofu block in a clean kitchen towel and place a heavy object on top for 15 minutes to remove excess moisture.
2. Cut the pressed tofu into 1-inch (2.5cm) cubes. Toss them in a bowl with soy sauce and sesame oil until evenly coated.
3. Sprinkle the cornstarch and garlic powder over the tofu cubes. Toss gently until the tofu looks dusty and matte.
4. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Arrange tofu cubes in a single layer.
5. Bake for 25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
6. In a small bowl, whisk together peanut butter, warm water, soy sauce, maple syrup, lime juice, sriracha, and grated ginger until smooth.
7. Assemble bowls by dividing cooked brown rice, shredded carrots, sliced cucumber, steamed edamame, and purple cabbage equally.
8. Top with crispy tofu and drizzle generously with the peanut sauce.
9. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions.
