Chili-Glazed Tofu over Asparagus and Rice image

Great vegan main dish. The tofu is really great. From Cooking Light October 2004. Slightly modified. If you prefer, before cutting tofu put it on a plate on top of a couple of paper towels, add another plate and flatten with a couple of large cans for about half an hour.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it would have been better with more spices.

This chili glazed tofu dish was an absolute delight! The tofu was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the chili glaze added a perfect balance of sweet and spicy flavors.
