Crispy Tofu Fritters Recipe (Perkedel Tahu)

Ingredients:

• 10 pieces of firm tofu, mashed
• 1 stalk of green onion, thinly sliced
• 1 egg, beaten
• Salt to taste
• Granulated sugar to taste

For the spice paste:

• 4 shallots
• 3 cloves of garlic
• 1/2 teaspoon of white pepper

For frying:

• Cooking oil

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Tofu Mixture:

   • In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed tofu with the beaten egg, sliced green onion, salt, and granulated sugar. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.

2. Make the Spice Paste:

   • Blend the shallots, garlic, and white pepper into a fine paste. Add this spice paste to the tofu mixture and mix thoroughly.

3. Form the Fritters:

   • Heat the cooking oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
   • Take a handful of the tofu mixture and shape it into a ball or patty using your hands. Press firmly to make sure it holds together.

4. Fry the Fritters:

   • Carefully place the tofu balls or patties into the hot oil. Fry until they are golden brown and crispy, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking. This should take about 3-5 minutes per side.

5. Serve:

   • Remove the fritters from the oil and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
   • Serve hot and enjoy your homemade Simple Tofu Fritters!
