Perkedel Tahu: Indonesian Tofu Fritters

Ingredients:

  • 4 blocks of white tofu, crumbled
  • 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1/2 medium carrot, finely chopped
  • 1 stalk green onion, finely sliced
  • 1 stalk celery, finely sliced
  • 1/2 tablespoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon chicken bouillon powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 50-70 ml water (approximately)

Instructions:

  1. Prepare Ingredients:
    Begin by cleaning and preparing all the ingredients. Wash and chop the vegetables as indicated. Crumble the tofu into a bowl.

  2. Mix Ingredients:
    In a large mixing bowl, combine the crumbled tofu with the all-purpose flour, beaten egg, finely chopped carrot, green onion, and celery. Add the salt, chicken bouillon powder, ground black pepper, and ground coriander. Incorporate the minced garlic and chopped onion.

  3. Adjust Consistency:
    Gradually add 50-70 ml of water to the mixture, stirring until the mixture achieves a slightly thick but workable consistency. The amount of water needed may vary, so adjust as necessary to ensure the mixture binds well together.

  4. Fry the Perkedel:
    Heat a generous amount of oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Scoop tablespoons of the tofu mixture and carefully drop them into the hot oil. Flatten each scoop slightly with the back of the spoon to form small patties.

  5. Cook Until Golden:
    Fry the patties for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and crispy. Remove from the oil and drain on paper towels.

  6. Serve:
    Serve the Perkedel Tahu hot as a delicious appetizer or side dish. Enjoy these crispy tofu fritters with a side of your favorite dipping sauce or as part of a larger meal.

This Indonesian classic is a perfect blend of flavors and textures, offering a savory and satisfying treat that’s sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
