May 08, 2023

Crispy fried tofu is one of the three recipes proposed by chef Francesco Basco during the first show cooking of the "N&B in Cucina" project.

Ingredients :

  • 300g tofu
  • 300g flour
  • 200ml water
  • Dried rosemary
  • Bread crumbs
  • Peanut oil

Method

  1. In a boule add water and sifted flour and mix vigorously until a smooth and homogeneous batter is obtained. Let rest for 20 minutes.
  2. Prepare the tofu slices and pat them dry with paper towels to dry all the water they release
  3. In another bowl, mix breadcrumbs and rosemary, add a pinch of salt.
  4. Dip the tofu slices in the batter and then in the breadcrumbs making it adhere well by pressing with your fingers.
  5. Heat a saucepan full of oil and bring it to a temperature of 175°C. Dip in a few slices of tofu at a time and fry until golden brown.
  6. Dry the tofu slices on absorbent paper and serve them accompanied by your favorite sauce! We recommend vegan mayonnaise or B&B sauce.
