Categories     Main Dish

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 tbsp soy sauce or tamari
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
10 ounces firm tofu (275 g), cubed
6 tbsp cornstarch
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, divided
1 carrot, chopped
1/2 green bell pepper, chopped
1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
1/2 onion, chopped
4 tbsp sugar, I used brown sugar
2 tbsp tomato paste
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 tsp soy sauce or tamari
6 tbsp water (90 ml)
2 tsp cornstarch

Steps:

  • Mix the soy sauce or tamari and apple cider vinegar in a bowl until well combined.
  • Incorporate the tofu cubes and let marinate for at least 5 minutes.
  • Drain the tofu and transfer 1/3 of the tofu cubes to a freezer bag with 2 tbsp of cornstarch and toss to coat. Repeat this step with all the remaining tofu and cornstarch. Add more cornstarch if needed.
  • Heat half of the oil in a skillet and when it's hot, add the tofu cubes. Cook over medium-high heat until all sides are golden brown. Remove the tofu from the skillet and set it aside.
  • Heat the other half of the oil in the skillet and when it's hot, incorporate the veggies (carrot, green bell pepper, red bell pepper, and onion). Cook over medium-high heat until golden brown. Set aside.
  • To make the sauce just mix all the ingredients until well combined.
  • Pour the sauce into the skillet and cook until it thickens, stirring frequently.
  • Mix the tofu, veggies, and the sauce in the skillet, stir, and cook for about 5 minutes over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
  • Serve your sweet and sour tofu immediately with some sesame seeds on top (optional).
  • Keep the leftovers in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 1 week.

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 (12 ounce) package extra-firm tofu
½ teaspoon salt
vegetable oil for frying

Steps:

  • Wrap tofu in a clean towel and place onto a plate. Set another plate on top, and place a 3- to 5-pound weight on top. Press tofu for about 20 minutes; drain and discard the accumulated liquid.
  • Cut tofu into 1-inch by 2-inch chunks. Sprinkle 1/4 teaspoon salt onto one slide; flip over and sprinkle remaining 1/4 teaspoon on the other.
  • Heat oil in a wok or large skillet. To test if the oil is ready, dip a chopstick or wooden spoon in it; if bubbles rise, it is ready. If the oil smokes, it is too hot.
  • Gently place 5 to 8 pieces of tofu at a time in hot oil using metal tongs. Be very careful as oil may splatter; use a splatter guard if possible. Fry tofu until golden, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Drain tofu on a plate lined with several paper towels. Allow to cool slightly before serving.

CRISPY TOFU WITH SWEET-AND-SOUR SAUCE



Crispy Tofu With Sweet-and-Sour Sauce image

Inspired by McDonald's Chicken McNuggets dipped in sweet-and-sour sauce - a classic combination that debuted nationwide in 1983 - this tofu appetizer gets its inexorable crunch from potato starch. Pan-fried until shatteringly crisp, pressed tofu, cut into cute little rectangles, eats a lot like Chicken McNuggets and cooks up gorgeously every time. But the true joy of a nugget lies in the dipping, and this recipe stars a totally chill, no-cook sweet-and-sour sauce. Apricot preserves provide fruity sweetness as well as body, and rice vinegar, soy sauce and onion powder add savoriness.

Provided by Eric Kim

Categories     snack, finger foods, vegetables, appetizer

Time 45m

Yield 4 appetizer servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (14-ounce) package firm tofu, drained
3 medium zucchini (about 1 pound)
3 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more to taste
1/2 cup apricot preserves
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon red-pepper flakes
1 1/2 teaspoons onion powder
1/2 cup potato starch
Neutral oil, such as vegetable or canola oil, or light olive oil

Steps:

  • Press the tofu: Wrap the block of tofu in a clean tea towel, and place on a cutting board. Weigh down the tofu with a sheet pan topped with something heavy, such as a large skillet, cans or books, until the tea towel is soaked, about 30 minutes.
  • While the tofu is pressed, prep the zucchini: Halve the zucchini crosswise, then cut each piece lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick planks. Finally, cut each plank lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick "fries." Place the zucchini fries in a large colander set over a medium bowl. Add 1 teaspoon salt, and toss until evenly coated. Set aside to drain.
  • Meanwhile, make the sauce: In a measuring cup, stir together the apricot preserves, rice vinegar, soy sauce, red-pepper flakes, 1 teaspoon onion powder and 2 teaspoons water until smooth. Transfer to a small dish for dipping, and set aside.
  • Slice the pressed tofu in half horizontally, and cut each of those halves into 8 rectangular pieces, creating 16 nuggets total. Directly on the cutting board, season the tofu with 1 teaspoon salt and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, smearing each piece around to catch all the seasonings.
  • In a large bowl, toss to combine the potato starch and the remaining 1 teaspoon salt. Place the tofu in the starch, and gently toss with your hands until each piece is evenly coated.
  • Fry the tofu: Heat a large skillet over medium-high, and add a thin layer of oil, enough to coat the bottom of the pan. Add the tofu in a single layer, and cook, flipping a couple of times, until lightly golden on both sides, about 10 minutes total. Transfer the cooked tofu to a towel-lined plate to drain, and season it with salt to taste.
  • To serve, transfer the tofu and zucchini to a large platter, and serve alongside the dipping sauce.

FRIED TOFU WITH SWEET AND SOUR DIPPING SAUCE



Fried Tofu With Sweet and Sour Dipping Sauce image

This recipe uses the fried tofu cubes you can find in Asian markets. It requires very little work and can be prepared in minutes. I generally serve the tofu at room temperature rather than warm because the sauce, unlike most commercially prepared sweet and sour sauces, is much more sour than sweet! If you can't find fried tofu cubes, feel free to fry your own using a recipe like #101891.

Provided by Samsara

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 10m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 ounces deep fried tofu
1/3 cup seasoned rice vinegar
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 1/2 tablespoons chopped peanuts
1 tablespoon minced fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • In a small saucepan, heat water over medium high heat. Once water begins to boil, add the tofu. This will rinse the frying oil off and bring the tofu to room temperature. Boil for 3-5 minutes.
  • Remove tofu from the water and drain the saucepan. Place tofu on a towel to dry.
  • Return the saucepan to the stove and add the vinegar, sugar, and salt to it. Simmer until it reaches a slightly syrupy consistency, stirring often.
  • Remove from heat and add remaining ingrediants. Serve in a small dipping bowl alongside tofu.

  • In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, vinegar and sugar, stirring until the sugar is completely dissolved. Add the green onion, garlic, chile and black pepper, and stir to combine. Set aside. This makes about one-third cup dipping sauce.
  • Pan-fry the cubes of tofu in a wok or medium, heavy-bottom saucepan: Add enough oil to coat the bottom of the wok or pan and heat over medium-high heat until hot. Test the oil with one cube of tofu, adjusting the heat as necessary so the cube fries quickly but does not burn. Fry the cubes in a single layer, making sure the pieces do not touch, until crisp on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes total. Repeat until all of the tofu pieces are cooked; this may need to be done in 2 batches.

  • Press the tofu in kitchen towel or tofu press for a few minutes to remove excess moisture. Slice into strips. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F / 200ºc.
  • Prepare the breading station. In one bowl mix the ingredients from flour through water until well combined to make a just about thick batter. Add some more water if needed. In another shallow bowl place the breadcrumbs and mix in 1/4 tsp salt.
  • Use one hand to dip the tofu strip in the batter to coat all sides. Tap to drop excess batter and transfer to breadcrumb bowl. Use the other hand to coat the strip with breadcrumbs and place on parchment lined baking sheet. Repeat for all strips. Spray oil on the strips and bake for 30 to 35 minutes or longer until crisp.
  • Mix everything under the sweet chili sauce in a pan (while off heat). Heat over medium and bring to just about a boil. Carefully taste and adjust sweet, tang and spice. Take off heat and pour in serving bowl. Cool slightly and serve with the tofu strips. Dip the strips in the dipping sauce for 1 to 2 seconds to pick up enough sauce for each bite. There will be double dipping, so serve the sauce in individual bowls, or make a double batch if needed.
