I discovered this late last night when I wanted a snack, but had nothing else. I didn't want to use oil and I am not yet part of the air fryer generation. So, I did an experiment. I cut up my firm tofu into thin slices ( about half a centimeter or a little less ). I put the slices on a plate, and the plate into the microwave for 5 minutes. The microwave evaporated most of the water and golden-browned a large amount of the surface of the tofu. "Fried" tofu without the oil. A meaty texture without pressing the tofu first. 5 minutes, no work other than slicing. It isn't high cuisine, but not bad when you are stuck without other options.
