Fried Tofu

Making fried tofu is easy. Cube the tofu and place cubes on paper towel to absorb and extra water before frying. Heat enough canola oil in a wok or pan to just cover tofu cube. Fry tofu and single layer batches. Mix gently and stir to fry all sides. When tofu cubes are browned , remove and set aside until all tofu is done.

Or you can just buy it fried already from the Asian section.

2. Add tofu , mix and cook for 1 minute.
3. Pour in sauce to create a gravy for the sauted vegetables.
