The recipe itself is in german but I did a quick translation.
Whisk together soy sauce, maple syrup, sesame oil and chili flakes to make a marinade. Remove tofu from package, wrap in a dish towel* and squeeze out liquid. Then cut into cubes, mix into a large and shallow bowl with the marinade and let sit in it for at least 15 minutes. Add cornstarch and sesame seeds and mix everything together well*.
Puree all ingredients for sweet and sour sauce with a blender until smooth and season to taste if necessary.
Prepare rice according to package directions. Cook broccoli*.
Heat sesame oil in a skillet and sauté tofu over medium heat for 8-10 minutes, until tofu is golden brown. Optionally, add some of the cooked broccoli and sauté for another 3-4 minutes.
Add the sweet and sour sauce, stir everything together and sauté for about 2-3 minutes until the sauce has thickened.
Serve together with rice and broccoli. Top with toasted sesame seeds, peanuts and spring onions.

Looks great! Any reason you didn't toss the broccoli in sauce too?
I make a similar dish with pork, and start by pan frying the broccoli until it gets a little charred, then add the meat (tofu) and sauce until things are nice and cooked/reduced/sticky
Not that I think there's anything wrong with how this is served, I'd definitely devour.
We did it partly and the next time I would definitely toss all the broccoli in to the pan, with the sweet sour sauce.
In this case, the broccoli wasn’t greasy, maybe a little plus. But also the taste was a little bit boring, compared with the sweet source broccoli. 🥦
