Total Time 35 minutes

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cook Time 5 minutes

Yield 12 ounces

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 (12 ounce) package extra-firm tofu
½ teaspoon salt
vegetable oil for frying

Steps:

  • Wrap tofu in a clean towel and place onto a plate. Set another plate on top, and place a 3- to 5-pound weight on top. Press tofu for about 20 minutes; drain and discard the accumulated liquid.
  • Cut tofu into 1-inch by 2-inch chunks. Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon salt onto one slide; flip over and sprinkle remaining 1/4 teaspoon on the other.
  • Heat oil in a wok or large skillet. To test if the oil is ready, dip a chopstick or wooden spoon in it; if bubbles rise, it is ready. If the oil smokes, it is too hot.
  • Gently place 5 to 8 pieces of tofu at a time in hot oil using metal tongs. Be very careful as oil may splatter; use a splatter guard if possible. Fry tofu until golden, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Drain tofu on a plate lined with several paper towels. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
