I love deep fried tofu in stir frys and noodle soup, however most supermarkets don't stock it. Today I show you how to make it at home with a very simple recipe.

Can you get Tofu from Coles or Woolworths?

This is my favourite way to eat tofu, I finely chop a little green chilli,
fresh garlic and celery salt and toss the fresh deep fried tofu through
this mixture.
This guys voice hurts my ears
This may be stupid and late (2012-2015?) but you freeze the uncooked tofu
correct?
Ye

hi, a couple of questions
1) whats the difference in using corn starch and flour?
2) i notice other deep fry videos, how come some people use egg after the
flour and others do not (like you)?
thanks
Flour goes clumpy but it can still be used
You don’t need egg the tofu is wet already
Can you tell me if putting the tofu in the freezer first helps get rid of
some of the moisture? I find that when I use even the x-tra firm tofu,
depending on the brand, it can have a lot of water and be kind of slimy to
work with. Any tips?
Use extra firm tofu, and wrap it in layers of paper (kitchen) towel and
place it on the plate. Put a lighter, but sturdy plate on top of it, then
place two average size cans of soup, veg, beans, etc. on it and leave it
for an hour. Drain water off the plate, wrap in fresh paper towel, then
place the plate and cans back on top for one more hour. Pat dry before
coating with corn starch, and the tofu should be dry enough to fry.
Alternative: rinse the tofu in hot, salted water and let drain in a
strainer for about an hour. I’ve had better luck with the first method.
Good luck in the kitchen!
No it makes it wetter
Hello Aussie.
Could you dry season somehow the corn starch with something to bring out
more flavor. I haven’t tried this but want to end up with Asian flavors.
Prob Korean or Chinese at the end.
thanks for the vid. it looks yommmm
yum !!!!!!!!!!!!!! tthanks so much!!!!!!!!!!!!
Will regular flour and vegetable oil work as well?
Will flour and vegetable oil work?
the reason he puts flour.. bcos, it’ll taste different and the texture also
different.
yes you are.. edward.. try it! It taste very very much different.. I cooked
for my friend b4 and they were all asked me, “wat did i put until they
taste it so different?”
all the same way as i usually did! but my way is a bit different at the
beginning.. I usually soak it in salt-water. So, the tofu will have taste,
something like very rich. And then, others are the same…. But sometimes I
love to roll it with sesame seed after deep fried.. and deep it with spicy
sweet sauce… It goes well also… 🙂
fried tofu is street food in indonesia
Love this quick & easy yumyum…????
