Recipe Crispy Barbequed Tofu Slices (Vegetarian)
Home Cooking Recipes
Required Ingredients:
- 1 (16 ounce) package extra firm tofu
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 egg white
- 1 tablespoon barbeque sauce
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1 cup barbeque sauce
Preparing/Cooking:
- Drain tofu, and slice into strips.
- Place in a plastic bag or container, and freeze overnight.
- This will give the tofu a meatier texture.
- Thaw tofu strips, and blot with paper towels to dry.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg white and 1 tablespoon of barbeque sauce.
- Dip tofu slices into the egg mixture, then fry in the hot oil for about 1 minute on each side, until golden brown.
- Just fry enough at one time so they are not crowded.
- Remove from the oil to paper towels to drain and cool.
- Preheat the oven's broiler.
- Brush tofu slices with additional barbeque sauce, and allow to marinate while the broiler heats up.
- Arrange them on a broiler pan, or wire rack set over a cookie sheet for best results.
- Position the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
- Broil for 5 minutes on each side, or until browned and crisp, watching closely so as not to burn them.
- Serve warm with the remaining barbeque sauce for dipping.
