Noodles, tofu, breaded food - what's not to love!
Ingredients
1 block of tofu
2 limes
60g panko breadcrumbs
1 tbsp sesame seeds
½ tsp salt
35g flour
1 egg
Method
Press your tofu for 30 minutes then cut into cubes.
Put the zest of the limes, the panko breadcrumbs, sesame seeds, and salt into a bowl and gently combine.
Put each piece of tofu into the flour, then the beaten egg, before the breadcrumb mixture (do this individually for the best results).
Heat some oil on a medium heat in a deep frying pan, spread the tofu out when the oil is hot; turning regularly but carefully as to not disturb or break the breadcrumb covering. You're after a crisp, golden brown colour on all sides. If it goes black quickly, your pan is too hot.
Drain the completed tofu on some kitchen paper.
Server with a noodle or rice stir fry, dress with rice vinegar and lime juice to taste.
