Cooking Instructions
- 1
Chop the bacon and imitation crab sticks into small pieces as you like. Add all the ingredients to a bowl and mix well with a spoon.
- 2
If you don't want to get your hands dirty, you can use a spoon (or a Chinese soup spoon) to mix. The tofu will break up nicely this way.
- 3
Pour oil into a frying pan and heat it up. When the oil starts to sizzle, scoop the mixture with a spoon and gently drop it into the oil to avoid splattering.
- 4
Fry until both sides are golden brown. Drain on paper towels and serve on a plate.
- 5
If you want to make them rounder and larger, use all-purpose flour instead of potato starch. You can also try other fillings like spinach or salmon with tofu.

Natto Tofu Fritters Natto Tofu Fritters
I wanted to make something that would be light on the stomach when I wasn't feeling too well.It's not oily, so it won't sit heavy in your stomach even if you eat a lot.Draining excess water from the tofu is an extra step, but by doing so beforehand avoids the problem of the mixture being too soft. This is lightly flavored, so for bento use you may want to add more salt. It's also low in calories so it's perfect for people on a diet. You'll be full and satisfied too.

Light and Fluffy Fritters With Edamame and Camembert Cheese Light and Fluffy Fritters With Edamame and Camembert Cheese
I was chosen to be a Meiji Hokkaido Tokachi Camembert cooking tester, so I thought up an appetizer that would be perfect for Father's Day.We usually eat Camembert just as-is, but I learned that it can be used in many recipes, so my repertoire has grown.I used a packaged Camembert that was cut into 6 portions, so I used 2 of the portions, each divided into 4 pieces for 8 fritters.If even a bit of the cheese is sticking out when you form the fritters, it will leak out, so make sure that the cheese is completely covered.

Chunky Fish Sausage and Vegetable Kakiage Fritters Chunky Fish Sausage and Vegetable Kakiage Fritters
These fish-sausage morsels are very colorful. They are fluffy when cooked, and I want them to have plenty of flavor on their own (without any dipping sauce and so on) so they are well seasoned too.When you drop the fritters in the oil in Step 3, form them so that each piece is fairly small and round. They will turn into cute round morsels. These are delicious as is, but you can eat them with ketchup or tempura dipping sauce if you like . For 2-4 servings. Recipe by caramel-cookie cookpad.japan
