Crispy Fried Tofu with Red Chili Sauce

Day 3 of the Blogging Marathon, I am back from the Donut Fest, that happened in Donut house. I will post a separate blog about it. But in a nutshell it was a lovely experience working in the kitchen of Donut House, and making my own flavours. It was exciting though I did not win it.

Coming to the day's post, I was inspired from Chef In You's recipe for fried tofu. I have adapted the recipe from there and made some tweaks to it.

Ingredients :

Crispy fried Tofu

Tofu - 1/2 pack 

Corn flour - 2 tsp

Red Chili powder - 1/2 tsp

Salt to taste

Oil for deep frying 

Red Chili Sauce:

Garlic pods - 3 finely chopped

Vinegar - 1 tsp

Salt - a pinch

Cornflour - 1/2 tsp

Sugar - a pinch

Red chili - 2 nos, chopped into fine pieces

Method :

Crispy fried Tofu:

Remove the water content from Tofu by placing a heavy vessel over it 

Cut it into small cubes and pat dry them

In a bowl mix corn flour, red chili powder and salt to form a paste

Heat oil in a heavy bottomed wok

When the oil is hot, dip the tofu cubes in the corn flour and deep fry them

Remove them on kitchen towels and serve with Red Chili sauce

Red Chili Sauce:

In a bowl , mix all the ingredients and serve with the crispy fried tofu
