Tips:

  • Use extra-firm tofu. This type of tofu holds its shape better than softer tofu and won't fall apart when you fry it.
  • Press the tofu before cooking. This helps to remove excess water and makes the tofu more flavorful.
  • Use a nonstick skillet. This will help to prevent the tofu from sticking and burning.
  • Be careful not to overcrowd the skillet. If you do, the tofu won't cook evenly.
  • Cook the tofu over medium heat. This will help to prevent the tofu from burning.
  • Flip the tofu halfway through cooking. This will help to ensure that the tofu cooks evenly.
  • Use a flavorful sauce. This will help to add flavor to the tofu and make it more enjoyable.
  • Serve the tofu with your favorite sides. Rice, vegetables, and noodles are all good options.

Conclusion:

These recipes are a great way to enjoy tofu in a new and flavorful way. The tofu is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the sauce is sweet and tangy. These recipes are also very versatile, so you can easily customize them to your own taste. Whether you're a tofu lover or just looking for a new and healthy way to cook, these recipes are sure to please.
