Steps

Translated from the Korean original. Amounts are as in the original recipe.

Wash the tomato well and slice it.
Cut the tofu with a round mold to the same size as the tomato, sprinkle lightly with salt, and remove the moisture.
Heat olive oil in a pan and lightly grill the tofu.
Soak the baby greens in cold water.
Mix balsamic sauce with sugar and lemon juice evenly to make a sauce.
Arrange the tofu and prepared tomato in a circle on a plate, top with the baby greens, and finish by sprinkling with balsamic sauce and Parmesan cheese just before eating.

💡 TipUsing balsamic sauce and Parmesan cheese lets you use less salt.
