Deep Fried Tofu with Savory Sauce

I absolutely hate using a lot of oil.
I use little amounts as possible, even for making tempura and deep fry dishes.
Try not to touch the tofu too much while you're cooking! It'll become all mushy.
By the way, if you just grill the tofu and drizzle on hot mentsuyu (diluted with water), it becomes the regular? agedashi tofu! Try it with grated daikon radish and ginger on the side. Recipe by Tenmu chan mama

I tried adding flavorful mushrooms to my usual agedashi tofu sauce.Deep fry the tofu as soon as you've coated it with katakuriko. I fry the tofu in a smallish frying pan that comes up to half the height of the tofu. Silken tofu falls apart easily, so turn the pieces over very carefully. For 2 servings.

I loved my mum's deep-fried tofu in dashi but deep-frying or making dashi was too much work. I have left out several steps from my mum's original recipe and I arrived at my own recipe. This recipe is now my husband's favorite.I use slightly firm silken tofu. If you don't have any shiso leaves you can use scallions instead. In that case, sprinkling on shichimi chilli mix will enhance the flavor. Recipe by rokuro cookpad.japan -

Korean Style Fried Tofu with Chili Garlic Soy Sauce Korean Style Fried Tofu with Chili Garlic Soy Sauce
The best way to get a meateater who's never tried tofu to hate it is to serve it as a meat substitute.Because there is no way a brick of soybean curd is ever going to take the place of a juicy steak, or a meaty pork chop, or even a piece of chicken breast. Well, maybe a chicken breast... specially if it's the boneless, skinless kind...But anyways, you don't hate tofu. What you hate is tofu that's served as meat. What you hate is tofu fashioned into *burger* patties. What you hate is when people tell you to just sprinkle some Bacos on tofu and it'll taste just like bacon.You like tofu. You know why? Because firstly, tofu tastes like tofu - mildly nutty and yes, wildly adaptable, but not as a substitute for meat. And when you prepare tofu to complement its flavor rather than mask it, you don't have the undesired effect of finding out that it really doesn't taste just like whatever you sprinkled on it. Secondly, because it is such a simple and elegant food, it takes well to simple, easy, and elegant preparations. :) x
