Cut the tofu into filet-like pieces and then cut a criss cross pattern on top for letting the marinate soak into the tofu. Place the tofu in a shallow bowl and cover with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours up to overnight.
10 oz firm tofu
In the meantime, cook the sushi rice as per the instructions on the package, carve the avocado into slices, and mince the green onions. Keep these ready for serving.
2 cups sushi rice
Take the tofu out of the marinade and pat it dry using paper towels.
Heat a large skillet and pour in the oil over medium heat. When it's hot enough, add the tofu slices and let them sizzle for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until they're browned and crispy.
2 tablespoon vegetable oil
Serve over rice topped with avocado, sriracha mayo, sesame seeds, green onions, and chili flakes.
