Shake all the sauce ingredients in a jar or toss them in the food processor and give them a whirl. If you’re going to have this cold, refrigerate your sauce for a while.
Press excess moisture out of the tofu. Cut into bite sized pieces. Heat a tiny bit of oil in a nonstick pan. Add the tofu and stir fry until golden brown. Add about 1/2 cup sauce and simmer until the sauce starts to evaporate / absorb into the tofu and becomes browned in the pan. Keep gently flipping and scraping browned bits off the bottom – after a while, you should end up with nicely golden brown tofu with some little yummy browned bits from the sauce.
Spiralize your zucchini and toss with about 1/4 cup sauce per serving. Top with tofu, sesame seeds, and scallions. Serve immediately.

Malia on 2021-06-08 (5 stars): I heard about this recipe a year ago and I FINALLY got around to making this. Totally yummy!!!!! Husband approved. It was very filling. The chili paste I bought wasn't spicy at all.. I had to use half the bottle, so I think switching my paste up or using spicy sesame oil. I took note of a tip from another comment: salt the zoodles, rinsed, drained, suited. Perfect. It's my new FAV. Yes! Best part is the little fried bits. Thank you!!
