Instructions
-
Prepare the Spice Mixture: In a bowl, combine the garlic, salt, coriander, and optional turmeric with a little water to create a smooth paste.
-
Cut the Tofu: Carefully slice each piece of tofu diagonally in the center, ensuring not to cut all the way through, creating a pocket.
-
Marinate the Tofu: Immerse the sliced tofu in the spice mixture, allowing it to soak for a brief moment to absorb the flavors.
-
Fry the Tofu: Heat oil in a frying pan until hot. Gently place the marinated tofu in the oil, frying until golden brown and crispy, making sure to turn occasionally for even cooking.
-
Drain and Cool: Once cooked, remove the tofu from the oil and place it on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
-
Final Fry: Flip the tofu so that the inner part faces outward, then return it to the hot oil for a second fry until it is fully crispy.
-
Serve and Enjoy: Your Tahu Krispy is now ready to be served! Enjoy it as a snack or appetizer, and savor the delightful crunch!
This delightful recipe highlights the ultimate balance of textures and flavors, perfect for any occasion.
