In a storage container, mix together 2 tbsp soy sauce with 2 tsp crispy chilli. Cube the tofu and add to the mixture in the container, mixing thoroughly to marinate.
Cut the potatoes into small 1 cm cubes and heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan. Add the potatoes and fry for 15–20 minutes. Remove from heat and then let drain and cool on kitchen roll (paper towels).
While the potatoes are cooking, slice the red onion and cut the red bell peppers into large chunks.
In the same pan, fry the tofu for 10 minutes then, remove and drain on kitchen roll.
While the potatoes are cooking, cut the tomatoes into eighths and remove the seeds.
In the same pan, fry the red onion for around 5 minutes. Then add the red bell pepper and fry them with the onion for about 3 minutes.
Add the tomatoes, garlic, spices, vinegar, remaining soy sauce and crispy chilli, and 5 tbsp of water, and cook for 5 minutes.
Chop the mint and fresh coriander (cilantro) together.
Add the tofu back to the pan along with about 40 grams of the fresh coriander (cilantro) and fresh mint mixture and toss.
