Steps

1

Open and drain water out of tofu package. Use paper towels to firmly squeeze dry the tofu. Any water on tofu will pop and splatter all over when frying.
2

Sliver diagnally on one side of tofu, not too deep, flip and slice opposite diagnally on the other side. Optionally can make slits all around. Put on plate.
3

In small bowl, add lemongrass, salt, hot pepper, tumeric. Mix well. Wear gloves to gently put mixture in slits of tofu. Tumeric will stain hands.
4

Can let it sit in fridge to marinate it better, or just fry it if in a hurry. Flip tofu on both sides when frying. Serve with rice and vegetables. (I like to leave it in bag to marinate and fry only what i plan to eat)
