- Drain the tofu, then invert into a microwave proof shallow bowl and pat dry. Scatter the ginger over the top and sprinkle with the spring onions.
- Drizzle the tofu with a little soy sauce, cover and put in the microwave on medium-high for 3-4 minutes.
- When the tofu has been cooking for 3 minutes, heat the vegetable oil and sesame oil in a small frying pan over high heat. Heat until very hot, then pour the hot oil over the tofu. Drizzle with a little more soy sauce and sesame oil to taste and serve with steamed rice.
