You don't need an air fryer for this salt and pepper tofu recipe, but it is easier to make in the air fryer. Frying tofu in the skillet instead of air fryer is an option.
Press the tofu with a tofu press or according to method stated above for about 20 minutes each side.
Cut tofu into bite sized pieces. My pieces were no bigger than a half inch tall.
Pour olive oil into a small bowl. Pour corn starch and seasonings into another bowl. Roll tofu in olive oil, and then roll into corn starch. The corn starch coating does not have to be super thick by any means.
Air fry tofu in a single layer in the sprayed air fryer basket for about 12 minutes. Check and stir half way through. Salt and pepper tofu will be done when the tofu is crispy golden brown, but still somewhat soft.
Notes
Store leftovers in an air tight container in the fridge for one week.
