Ingredients

• 14oz Extra firm tofu
• 2 tbsp corn starch
• 1/2 tsp tumeric
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp sea salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 2/3 cup olive (or canola) oil

Preparation

1

Drain the tofu and remove as much moisture as you can. I use the microwave to do this: cut up the tofu in sizes you like and place on a microwave-safe plate that is lined with some paper towel. Put a few paper towels on top and then put the plate in the microwave for 4 mins. Let it sit for a few minutes before frying.

2

Add oil to a cast iron or sautée pan - I use canola, but olive oil works nicely, too. Begin heating up the oil.

3

In a mixing bowl combine the corn starch, tumeric, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix.

4

Throw the tofu in the bowl and coat by tossing.

5

Once the oil is hot, place the tofu in the pan and let it cook on one side for about 6-7 mins. Then flip the pieces of tofu and cook for another 6-7 mins.

6

Place the tofu on a rack with paper towels underneath to catch any drippings. The air drying will help them crisp up a bit.

Serve and enjoy!
