It's been awhile since I actually made it to the kitchen to play chef. I have been spoiled rotten by my beloved lately. He is such a sweetheart :)
For personal reasons, I've been practicing vegetarianism(? is that even a word) and pretty much getting tired of all the carb-loaded cheesy food. I had a stocked fridge and I needed to cook everything before it goes bad. Today, I attempted Pan Fried Tofu in Tomato Sauce. I haven't made an authentic dish like this in awhile.
Like most females of my family, we hardly measure ingredients, you just "smell" and wing it.
Ingredients:
- 1 block of firm tofu
- Corn Starch Powder
- Paprika
- Black Pepper
- Salt
- Sugar
- Soy Sauce
- Tomatoes
- Chili Peppers
- Cilantro
- Oil
1. Pat dry the firm tofu block with paper towels after unpackaging. Try to squeeze as much water as you can without destroying the tofu block :)
2. Slice the tofu up in squares or rectangles. It's your preference, you can get fancy and slice into triangles if you prefer.
