Brilio.net - Fried tofu is one of the dishes that is very popular in various parts of the world, especially in Indonesia. Its savory taste and crunchy texture make it a favorite snack or side dish. Fried tofu is often the main choice in everyday dishes, because of its practicality in the manufacturing process. In addition, fried tofu can be combined with various additional ingredients to create different menus.
In the process of making crispy fried tofu , many people choose to use flour as one of the coating ingredients. Flour serves to provide a crispier texture to the surface of the tofu after frying. The use of flour not only helps create an appetizing crispy layer, but also provides additional flavor when enjoying fried tofu.
However, it is different from netizens on the YouTube account KulinerSamaCici - Vinny Laurencia. She admitted that her husband has a trick to make crispy tofu without adding flour or any other ingredients. As a result, she decided to share the trick to frying crispy tofu without flour through a video tutorial. So, are you curious about the trick?
"I'm really confused. When I usually fry tofu it's not this crispy, but when my husband makes it it's really crispy," he said, quoted by BrilioFood from YouTube KulinerSamaCici - Vinny Laurencia on Thursday (19/9).
The type of tofu used is pong tofu. This pong tofu can be cut into pieces first with the size according to taste, small or just triangles. Put the tofu pieces into a frying pan filled with oil, then turn on the stove to low heat. Fry the tofu while stirring occasionally for approximately 30 minutes.

After frying for 30 minutes, remove the tofu and drain for a while. No need to wait long, fry the tofu again in the oil that was previously used for the first frying process. However, this time the oil must be really hot and cooked using a fairly large flame.
The second tofu frying process only takes 5 minutes. When the tofu is cooked and crispy after being fried for 5 minutes, immediately remove and drain. This fried tofu can be served with a sprinkling of each person's favorite seasonings.
