This tofu recipe is completely gorgeous. A former roommate introduced me to some basics with tofu, and over the past few years, I've settled on this ratio of spices and other breading ingredients. The crust on the tofu sticks is tasty and the texture is really wonderful. Serve with a relish or a dip of some sort (I love this with plain yogurt mixed with eggplant brinjal). I usually make this with a cumin-scented rice dish and a garlicky broccoli side.

Air-fried tofu that is seasoned on the inside, crispy on the outside, and dipped in a sweet-heat sauce for a party in your mouth with every bite. Serve in lettuce wraps if desired.
