Method

5 steps

Press tofu to remove excess moisture and cut into small cubes.
Heat a non-stick pan over medium-high heat and sear tofu cubes until golden and crispy on all sides.
Smash cucumbers with the flat side of a knife and chop into bite-sized pieces.
Whisk soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and minced garlic in a small bowl to create the dressing.
Combine the crispy tofu and smashed cucumbers in a large bowl, pour the dressing over the top, and toss well to coat.
