Tofu Chips

September 16, 2010



I was browsing through Donna Hay's Autumn magazine...  it was described as tofu strips~ which of course much thinner than mine :) as part of a dish... but I had different ideas... as my tofu keeps breaking up, if I were to slice any thinner hence I decided to make these wonderful chips instead... 

It has that nice crunch with a hint of Chinese Five Spice after taste... everyone just could not stop munching on these wonderful Tofu Chips..
  • Firm tofu - cut into thick strips (about 1cm)
  • 3/4 cup rice flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon chinese 5 spice
  • 1 teaspoon white pepper
  • salt
  • oil for shallow frying

Mix the rice flour, 5 spice, salt and pepper in a bowl. Add tofu and gently toss to coat... shake excess and shallow fry until golden...

Best serve immediately...  :)

  2. This is such an interesting concept - I never thought to use tofu for "fries"! They look delicious.

    have to have them immediately... leave it too long .. tofu chips will turn soggy..

    Lauren,
    Thank you. :)

    Marisa,
    Its the rice flour :) ... where I come from... we use rice flour batter(mix with a drop or two of a very diluted slaked lime)to deep fry banana, sweet potatoes, yam and cassava... and they are nice and crispy..:)

    Carolyn,
    Kids love these... :)
