Instructions

Add sliced tofu and simmer sauce to a tupperware container. Shake so that the tofu is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight.
When you’re ready to make the bao, add mayonnaise and Sriracha into a small bowl and mix well. Set aside.
Heat a medium nonstick skillet on medium high heat. Add tofu slices and cook for 4-5 minutes, flip the tofu and cook for another 4 minutes. Add in the rest of the marinade and cook until the sauce is nice and thick.
Add bao buns to a greased steamer and steam for 7 minutes. Remove the bao buns and spread some Sriracha mayo on one side. Then stuff the bao with tofu, shredded cabbage and cucumber slices. Top with peanuts, sesame seeds, and scallion. Enjoy!
