Ingredients
1block of fresh tofuor vacuum packed
2tablespoonsof rice flour
10ml of soy sauce
Neutral oil
Instructions
Start by draining your tofu. Then, place it between two sheets of paper towels or a clean cloth. Then, place a small cutting board on top of your tofu and place a weight (max. 500 g) on the board to allow the water in the tofu block to drain away.
Cut the tofu into relatively large cubes. Then roll them gently in the rice flour.
In a frying pan, heat a little neutral oil. Add the tofu cubes and let them cook for 1 minute. Turn them over and cook them, ideally on each sides. Avoid stirring them too much to prevent them from breaking.
At the end, pour in the soy sauce and mix well to season the tofu cubes.
