      Title: Air-Fryer Tofu
 Categories: Vegetables, Chilies
      Yield: 2 servings
 
     14 oz Medium or medium-firm tofu;
           - drained
    1/2 c  Potato starch
  1 1/2 ts Kosher salt
           Fresh cracked black pepper
           Nonstick cooking spray
    1/4 c  Brown sugar
      3 tb Rice vinegar
      3 tb Soy sauce
    1/2 ts Sambal oelek or sriracha
           Sliced scallions (opt); to
           - serve
 
  Heat air fryer to 375┬║F/190┬║C, if preheating is
  recommended for your air fryer.
  
  Wrap the drained tofu in a clean kitchen towel or in a
  few layers of paper towels. Place on a plate and weigh
  down tofu with something heavy, like a glass bowl,
  skillet or can, and allow to drain for at least 10
  minutes and up to 30 minutes.
  
  While the tofu drains, in a large, wide bowl, combine
  the potato starch, salt and pepper. Unwrap the tofu and
  pat dry once more. Cut the tofu into ┬╛-inch cubes and
  add to the potato starch mixture. Use your fingers to
  gently toss until coated.
  
  Spray the air fryer basket with cooking spray. Place the
  tofu in the air fryer basket, shaking off any excess
  potato starch while transferring. Once the tofu is in
  the air fryer basket, spray once more with the cooking
  spray to prevent clumping. Cook until tofu becomes
  slightly puffed, about 10 minutes. Use tongs to move
  tofu pieces around the basket. Continue to cook until
  lightly browned in some spots and crisped all around,
  about 10 minutes.
  
  Discard the potato starch from the large bowl, wipe it
  clean and set it aside. While the tofu cooks, make the
  sauce: In a small skillet, combine the brown sugar,
  vinegar and soy sauce over medium heat. Cook, stirring
  occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly and
  clings lightly to the back of a spoon, about 5 minutes.
  Remove from the heat and stir in the sambal.
  
  Return the crispy tofu to a large bowl. Pour the soy
  glaze over the tofu; toss to coat. Transfer to a serving
  plate and top with scallions, if using.
