How to make delicious onion tofu
Step 1: Prepare tofu
First, gently wash the tofu sheets under running water to clean the tofu and drain. This is very important so that the oil will not splatter during frying and the tofu will achieve a certain crispiness.
Next, use a knife to cut the tofu into bite-sized squares about 1-1.5cm thick. This size helps the tofu cook quickly and evenly and absorb the spices easily.
Step 2: Prepare green onions and other ingredients
Next, remove the roots and wilted leaves of the green onions, wash thoroughly and cut into 3-4cm pieces. Next, peel the garlic and chop finely.
Step 3: Fry the tofu
Place the pan on the stove, add enough cooking oil and heat it up. Note that the amount of cooking oil should cover about 1/3 of the tofu. When the oil is hot, gently add each piece of tofu and fry over medium heat. Do not use too much heat because it will cause the tofu to burn quickly on the outside while the inside is not cooked.
Be sure to turn the tofu over until it is golden brown and has a slightly crispy outer layer. Remove the fried tofu to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Step 4: Make fish sauce with onion
This is an important step that determines the flavor of the onion-marinated tofu. In a small bowl, add:
- 2 tablespoons good fish sauce
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper.
- Minced chili (if you like spicy food).
Stir well until sugar dissolves, season to taste.
Step 5: Marinate the tofu with onions
The final step is to marinate the tofu with onions.
Reuse the pan that you used to fry the tofu, then drain off some of the cooking oil (leaving only about 1 tablespoon), add minced garlic and saute until fragrant. Then, add the chopped green onions and stir quickly over high heat for about 10-15 seconds so that the onions are just cooked while still retaining their bright green color and characteristic aroma. Note that you should not stir-fry the onions for too long because it will make them soft and lose their flavor.
Add the fried tofu to the pan, stir gently so the tofu does not break.
Next, slowly pour the mixed fish sauce over the tofu, stir gently so that the tofu absorbs the spices evenly. Stir quickly so that the fish sauce thickens and sticks evenly to the tofu, then turn off the stove.
