Make
- Toss tofu with corn starch.
- Heat a skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add cooking oil to pan and then tofu to heated oil. Saute for 6 to 8 minutes, until tofu gets a bit crispy and golden on the outside.
- Pour in sauce and let simmer. The corn starch from the tofu will help the sauce thicken. Once it’s thickened, toss to coat the tofu.
- Warm tortillas according to package instructions.
- Make guacamole by mashing together garlic, shallots, cilantro, avocado, and lime juice. Season to taste with salt and hot sauce.
- Enjoy tofu tacos topped with guacamole and radish slices.
