DEEP FRIED TOFU - A CRISP JAPANESE STARTER:
I got this recipe from Here. These Deep Fried Tofu are called as "Tofu no Otoshiage". the recipe call's for some Fish. but i tried it with Tofu and Leek, which is called as Negi in Japan.
Tofu- 50 gms (Shredded)
Leek/Negi - 2tbsp ( Finely Chopped)
Salt - a pinch
Egg - 1 Beaten (little is enough)
Corn Flour - 2 tsp
Method:
Mix all the ingredients togeather. Add beaten egg a little, so that you can shape the Tofu in a ball shape. shape the tofu's like ball's. Heat the oil in a pan, and deep fry them in slow flame.
now the crispy, tasty, instant japanese starter is ready in a jiffy.

Eggless Version: ( From Sathya )
add gram flour, green chilli's and little chilli powder to the crumbled tofu, wrap them up with bread crumbs and fry till they turn golden colour in slow flame.
I really loved these sinfull deep fried tofu ball's. it was crispy in outer and spongy inside. Leek certainly added a difference. Now this is my entry for A.W.E.D - Japan. event started my DK.
The Deadline for A.W.E.D - Japan is nearing, its just 5 days away. so keep rushing your entrie's.
Love the mango trees heavy with fruits, reminds me of grandparents home. Lovely Tofu Vadas! :)

Hi Lavi,
ReplyDeleteI started visiting ur blog for few receipes and its today i tried Deep fried Tofu. It came out very well. I just modified the receipe a bit by adding gram flour,green chillies, chilli powder and bread crumbs and thereby avoided egg. It was a big hit in my family though they never liked to have tofu. I saw ur coconut sambar receipe too. Would try very soon n would post u regarding that. Your receipes are good and keep going!!!!
