How to Make Deep Fried Tofu With Asian Plum Sauce Or Thai Peanut Sauce
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup sesame seeds, 2 tablespoons sugar, 1/4 cup cornstarch, and 1/4 cup all-purpose flour.
- Cut the block of firm or extra-firm tofu into 1-inch cubes. Gently press out excess water using paper towels.
- Add the tofu cubes to the sesame mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
- Heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. The oil is ready when a small piece of tofu sizzles immediately.
- Carefully add the tofu cubes to the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry in batches for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the fried tofu with a slotted spoon and place on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Serve immediately while warm, with your favorite Asian plum or Thai peanut sauce.
