A vegan dish that’s even more crunchy if you make it in the deep fryer

Crispy Tofu Recipe in Fryer

• 1 block firm tofu

• 1-2 tablespoons of vegetable oil

• Salt and spices to taste (optional)

1. start with dump the tofu: Take the tofu out of the package and dry it with kitchen paper. Wrap it in extra kitchen paper and place something heavy on top, such as a plate or cutting board, to stifle excess liquid. Let it sit for at least 15-30 minutes to remove as much liquid as possible.

2. Cut the tofu into pieces: Once the tofu is well drained, cut it into pieces of your preferred size, such as cubes or strips.

3. Season the tofu (optional): If you want to add extra flavor, you can season the tofu with salt and spices to sweeten it. Some popular options include garlic powder, paprika, turmeric, cayenne, among others. You can try the spices and adapt them according to your preferences.

4. Preheat the fryer: Turn on the fryer and heat to approximately 200-220°C according to your fryer’s instructions.

5. Brush the tofu with oil: In a separate bowl, mix the vegetable oil with a basting brush. Lightly brush all sides of the tofu pieces with oil. This will help them brown and crispy in the fryer.

6. Place the tofu in the air fryer: When the air fryer is preheated, place the tofu pieces in a single layer in the air fryer basket, making sure there is enough space between them for proper air circulation.

7. Cook the tofu: Set the fryer to about 10-15 minutes and cook the tofu until golden and crispy. You may want to turn the tofu pieces halfway through the cooking time so they brown evenly.

8. Remove and Enjoy: When the tofu is golden and crispy, remove it from the fryer and serve hot. You can accompany it with sauce or add it to your favorite dishes.

Note that cooking times may vary depending on the make and model of the fryer, so you may need to make some adjustments.
