Cuisine: Korean
Ingredients: 1 block of extra-firm tofu, pressed and cut into thin slices; 1/2 cup soy sauce; 1/4 cup brown sugar; 2 tablespoons sesame oil; 3 cloves garlic, minced; 1 tablespoon grated ginger; 1 tablespoon rice vinegar; 1 teaspoon sesame seeds; 1/4 teaspoon black pepper; 1 onion, thinly sliced; 1 red bell pepper, sliced; 1 green bell pepper, sliced; 2 green onions, chopped; Cooked rice, for serving

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, rice vinegar, sesame seeds, and black pepper. Whisk until the sugar has dissolved, forming the bulgogi marinade.
Place the tofu slices in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them, ensuring each piece is coated. Cover the dish and let the tofu marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Preheat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the marinated tofu slices, reserving the excess marinade for later use. Cook the tofu on each side until browned and slightly caramelized, about 3-4 minutes per side.
In the same skillet, add the sliced onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper. Sauté the vegetables until they are tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
Pour the remaining marinade over the tofu and vegetables in the skillet, allowing everything to simmer together for an additional 2-3 minutes. This will help infuse the dish with more flavor.
Sprinkle chopped green onions over the top of the bulgogi tofu mixture for a fresh and colorful garnish.
Serve the Vegetarian Bulgogi Tofu hot over a bed of steamed rice, allowing the savory sauce to soak into the grains for a delightful combination of flavors and textures.
