Directions Vietnamese Fried Tofu with Tomato Paste
Directions
-
Rinse tofu and press using a tofu press to remove all water, about 15 minutes. Cut into 1/2x1x1-inch pieces.
Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Fry tofu in the hot oil until golden, about 5 minutes.
Transfer fried tofu to a deep frying pan with tomatoes, water, tomato paste, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce to medium-low heat and let simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Top with green onions.
