Ingredients

Instructions

  • Wrap Tofu with a paper towel and place on to a plate. Microwave for 3 minutes. Carefully remove wet paper towel, and wrap Tofu with a new paper towel. Put weight on wrapped Tofu to remove water further. Leave it for a couple of hours, changing paper towels a few times.
  • Heat oil at medium heat to 350 F (180 C). Cut Tofu in half. Deep fry Tofu until golden brown, turning once or twice.
  • Cut into bite size pieces if you want. Top with chopped green onion and grated ginger, and drizzle Soy Sauce. Serve hot.
