Lemongrass chilli fried tofu

Method

1. 1 Cut the tofu into cubes and let it drain for 10 minutes to remove excess water.
2. 2 Deep-fry the tofu for 8 minutes until golden brown and crispy, then remove and drain off excess oil.
3. 3 Finely chop the lemongrass, garlic, and chili peppers.
4. 4 Sauté lemongrass, garlic, and chili peppers in a little oil for 3 minutes until fragrant.
5. 5 Add the beans to the pan with soy sauce and sugar, stir well for 3 minutes, then turn off the heat.

With an appliance

• Air fryer 29 min

  Replace step 2: spray oil evenly on all sides of the tofu, fry at 195 degrees for 14 minutes, flip at the 7th minute; steps 4 and 5 still involve sautéing lemongrass, garlic, and chili, then tossing the tofu with the seasoning in the pan.
