Ingredients

Ingredient Quantity
Tahu Putih (firm tofu) 1 long piece (or 10 pieces of tofu skin)
Salt To taste
Ground Pepper To taste
Flavor Enhancer (optional) To taste
Tapioca Flour 5 tablespoons
All-Purpose Flour 4 tablespoons
Green Onions Chopped
Water Hot, as needed

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Tofu: If using firm tofu, cut it into pieces and fry until golden and crispy. If using tofu skin, simply slice it open, ensuring not to cut all the way through, and flip it inside out.

  2. Season the Tofu: For both types, soak the tofu in a mixture of salted water, ground pepper, and optional flavor enhancer. This step enhances the taste.

  3. Make the Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the tapioca flour, all-purpose flour, chopped green onions, salt, pepper, and optional flavor enhancer. Gradually add hot water, mixing until a smooth and pliable dough forms.

  4. Fill the Tofu: Carefully stuff the tofu with the prepared filling, making sure the filling is well-distributed.

  5. Fry the Tofu: Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, carefully add the filled tofu and fry until golden brown and crispy.

  6. Serve: Enjoy your crispy Tahu Aci hot, perfect as a snack or appetizer!

This delightful dish combines crispy textures with savory flavors, making it an ultimate treat for any occasion!
