Teriyaki sauce:
1 cup soy sauce or tamari
1 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons vegetable stock
1 teaspoon mirin Tofu:
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 (14 ounce) package firm tofu, pressed and sliced 1/2"
1/2 cup teriyaki sauce (recipe above)
2 cups cooked rice
1 teaspoon sesame seeds, toasted
1 scallion, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon nori, ripped apart or cut into fine strips
1. For teriyaki sauce, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, vegetable stock, and mirin and bring to a boil in small sauce pan.
2. Simmer for 5 minutes. Be careful not to let the sauce boil over. Refrigerate for up to 2 months. For tofu, bring oil in frying pan to hot heat. Put the flour on a plate and dredge each side of the tofu completely in it.
3. Add the tofu to the frying pan and fry each side to a golden brown color. In a new frying pan, put the tofu in there and add the teriyaki sauce.
4. Bring sauce to a boil, then reduce and let simmer, covered, for 5 minutes. Turn tofu over periodically in order to coat each side.
5. Remove from pan and serve on top of hot rice. Top with sesame seeds, scallions, and nori.
