Fried Tofu

Fried tofu is a recipe for an easy-to-make, tasty dish. Tofu is rich in protein and does not contain milk fat. It has a lot of iron and calcium. When choosing tofu, pay attention to the color. High-quality soy cheese is white. If it is yellow, it means the product was frozen. Due to its neutral taste, tofu has many cooking options. It is added to soups, salads, fried in breadcrumbs or batter.

How to cook Fried Tofu

Step 1

Fried Tofu

Prepare the breading. Mix the 5-spice mixture with rice flour and salt. Place the breadcrumbs in a separate bowl. Beat the eggs with a fork in a separate bowl.

Step 2

Fried Tofu

Start frying the tofu. Heat about 110 ml of oil in a frying pan. Dip each piece of tofu first in rice flour, then in egg, and finally in breadcrumbs. Fry the tofu pieces in the frying pan in hot oil, stirring very carefully, until golden brown.
