Deep fried Tofu

Deep fried tofu is very popular among the Chinese, because both raw materials and cooking costs are low, and it tastes delicious. It is one type of Chinese snacks, and is easy to cook. Deep-frying gives the tofu a golden color and a crispy texture. Cooking time lasts about 10 minutes.

Ingredients:

1 pound medium or firm tofu

3 - 4 tablespoons cornstarch or flour, as needed

Oil for deep frying, as needed

Preparation:

Drain the tofu.
Cut the tofu into 4 large triangles or cubes as desired.
Roll the tofu in the cornstarch or flour.
Heat wok and add oil for deep frying. When the oil is heated to at least 350 degrees F., carefully add 2 tofu pieces into the wok.
Fry, stirring occasionally, until the tofu is golden on both sides. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Keep warm while frying the remaining tofu.
