You don't need a huge amount of oil to deep-fry the tofu for this dish. Just use a small saucepan and fry in batches.

Categories     Lunch

Total Time 30 minutes

Yield SERVES 4 as part of a shared meal

Number Of Ingredients 7

600g classic tofu (should be soft to the touch but not silken)
1 cup potato starch (or corn starch)
2-4 cups vegetable oil, for deep frying
3 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
1 large red chilli, roughly chopped
2 spring onions, sliced
salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Put the tofu between two pieces of kitchen paper and place a plate on top. Stand for about 10 minutes to press and remove excess moisture. Cut the tofu into 5cm cubes and roll in the starch. Allow to stand for 5 minutes while you heat the oil to 175C. 

    2. Fry the tofu in batches for about 3 minutes each batch, then drain on a wire rack. 

    3. Heat a wok over medium heat and add about 1 tbsp of oil (I prefer to use fresh oil for this, but you can use the frying oil if you like). Add the garlic, chilli and spring onions and fry until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the tofu, season very well with salt and black pepper and gently toss to coat the tofu in the fried aromatics. Remove to a plate and serve.

SALT AND PEPPER TOFU RECIPE - FOOD.COM
I'm not a vegetarian, although I used to be one for 13 years, and even though I eat meat, I like to try to use meat sparingly. I love baked tofu, but most of the recipes I've come across are soy sauce marinades. I love the taste, but the sodium is just to high to do often. While looking for other tofu recipes, I found this one. With this recipe, they suggest sauteing in a pan. However, I like to bake mine. Just put some parchment paper down on a pan and bake until a little golden and crispy (usually about 20-30 min.) This is from the website eatmedelicious.com
