Fried Tofu is available from many Asian grocery stores. In Melbourne where I live, many supermarkets sell it. Fried Tofu has firm and crunchy outside, and it is suitable for many dishes. Today I cooked this rice bowl, similar to my ‘Scrumptious Chicken & Egg Rice Bowl’. It’s a vegetarian dish that is high in protein.
