Instructions
1. In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch, tamari or soy sauce, rice vinegar, maple syrup, ginger, and garlic until well combined. Set aside.
2. In a large non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of water over medium-high heat. Add the cubed tofu and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and crispy. Remove the tofu from the skillet and set aside.
