  1. 1
    Preheat your air fryer to 400ºF (200ºC) (I preheat mine according to manufacturer’s recommendations, for about ⏱️ 3 minutes ).
  2. 2
    Cut the tofu into cubes. I don’t press the tofu because I prefer to save some time and also think it’s not necessary, but it’s up to you. I just drain the tofu and discard the liquid.

    Place the tofu cubes into a mixing bowl and add tamari or soy sauce , garlic powder , onion powder , and olive oil . Stir until well combined and let the tofu marinate for at least ⏱️ 15 minutes , preferably overnight.

  4. 4
    Transfer the tofu cubes to the air fryer basket in a single layer and cook for 10 to ⏱️ 15 minutes or until golden brown, shaking the pan a couple of times to promote even cooking. Depending on the size of your air fryer, you may need to cook half the tofu at a time.
  5. 5
    Serve immediately with dishes like veggie stir fry, cabbage soup, or vegetable soup.
  6. 6
    Keep the leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.
