GOLDEN TOFU IN ABALONE SAUCE


I love tofu and I can also see that's a lot of people out there who loves tofu too. Tofu is an excellent source of vegetarian protein.

Anyway.....here's is another recipe I would like to share and it's very easy to prepare.


Preparation time : 30 minutes
Cooking time : 15 minutes


INGREDIENTS :

1 box soft tofu
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp cornstarch
1 egg, beaten
2 cups oil for deep-frying
1 stalk green onion, chopped


Seasoning (Mixed)
2 tbsp abalone sauce
1 tbsp light soy sauce
5 tbsp water
1/2 tsp cornstarch



METHODS :

1. Sprinkle salt all over the tofu and wrap it up with a clean cloth or paper towels. Place a weigh on top of the tofu and let it stand for about 20 minutes to press out the excess water.

2. Heat the oil in the wok in medium high heat. Unwrap the tofu and cut into pieces. Coat the tofu with cornstarch, then dip in the beaten egg and deep-fry in the hot oil until golden brown. Dish and drain the fried tofu. Arrange the fried tofu onto a serving platter.

3. Leave 1 tbsp of oil in the wok, add the seasoning and bring it to a boil until thicken. Pour the sauce over the fried tofu and sprinkle with chopped green onion on top. Serve.
