Try this simple Crispy Homemade
Seafood Tofu! This Seafood Tofu, also called Signature Tofu (招牌豆腐), is a signature dish that is widely
offered in Chinese restaurants and is quite excellent.
Fortunately, it's quite simple to
prepare this delicious dish at home! There are basically just three easy stages
involved in making homemade seafood tofu: Combine all ingredients, then steam
the tofu mixture before deep-frying it to a perfect texture.
This is a delectable meal of deep-fried tofu with soft tofu, seafood (typically prawns and fish), carrots, coriander, and spring onions added for flavour and colour. This recipe can be adjusted as you like, very flexibly. You can add minced meat or cuttlefish. You can make changes to my recipe to suit your taste as you may prefer more of one ingredient and less of another.
I am using mackerel for this recipe. In fact, you can choose any kind of firm white
fish. Or you can use salmon also.
The inside is extremely soft and
bursting with delicious seafood tastes, while the outside is crispy. Delicious as a main course or as a finger food
snack. Enjoy with my homemade sweet chili sauce, or your own preferred hot
sauce or mayonnaise.
