For best results, press the tofu for at least 30 minutes to remove excess water before cooking. Adjust the amount of sriracha to suit your spice preference. If you don’t have a microwave, you can melt the peanut sauce ingredients in a small saucepan over low heat. Garnish with chopped cilantro and green onions for added flavor and visual appeal.
