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.
