Mix well, remove from the heat and set aside.
TASTY TOFU
Drain the tofu and slice into 2cm cubes. Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the tofu until golden and crispy, 2-3 minutes per side. Add the remaining Korean marinade and a splash of water and simmer until slightly reduced.
