Fried Tofu Cheese

Cookinero 10 Mar 2025

Tofu cheese is a soybean product that is rich in protein. It was first prepared in Asia. It has no flavor of its own, so it is well suited for frying in spices. There is hard and soft tofu cheese. For this dish, it is best to choose hard, as it is best suited for frying. For fried tofu cheese, you only need flour, breadcrumbs and eggs. Soy tofu cheese is suitable for vegans and people who adhere to a healthy diet.

How to cook Fried Tofu Cheese

Step 1

Fried Tofu Cheese

Fry the cheese. Cut the cheese into cubes. Beat the eggs with a fork, add salt and pepper. Dip each cheese cube first in flour, then in egg, and then in breadcrumbs. Fry the cubes in a preheated frying pan with vegetable oil for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Fried Tofu Cheese - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes! While firm cheeses like halloumi or paneer work best, you can also use mozzarella or cheddar. Just note that softer cheeses may melt more easily.
Absolutely! Substitute the flour and breadcrumbs with gluten-free alternatives like almond flour and gluten-free panko for a crispy texture without gluten.
To make it vegan, replace the eggs with a flax egg (1 tbsp ground flaxseed + 2.5 tbsp water per egg) and use dairy-free cheese. Ensure breadcrumbs are vegan-friendly.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in an oven or air fryer to maintain crispiness.
Yes! Freeze the breaded cubes on a tray for 1 hour, then transfer to a freezer bag. Fry from frozen, adding 1-2 extra minutes per side.
Try marinara, sweet chili sauce, or a creamy garlic aioli for dipping. A spicy sriracha mayo also adds a nice kick.
For a low-carb version, skip the breadcrumbs and use crushed pork rinds or almond flour instead. You can also bake instead of fry for fewer calories.
Use oils with high smoke points like vegetable, canola, or avocado oil. Ensure the oil is hot (around 350°F) before adding the cheese cubes.
