° ½ teaspoon olive oil
° ½ teaspoon sesame oil
° 1 tablespoon light soy sauce

Method
1. Place the tofu in a heat proof serving plate and steam for 5 minutes.
2. Garnish steamed tofu with ginger, spring onion, chilli and sprinkle some sesame seeds.
3. Drizzle with oils, light soy sauce and serve immediately.
