Ruby was looking for a fried tofu patty recipe, and this is it! Really good.
Ingredients:
1 TBS sesame seeds
15 oz firm tofu, rinsed
5 egg whites (I used EnerG Egg replacer which comes in a box at Down To Earth)
1/2 cup flour
1 TBS grated ginger
1 medium carrot, grated
3 green onions, thin sliced
1/3 cup frozen peas
1 TBS soy sauce
2 tsp sesame oil (more if needed)
Sauce:
3 TBS soy sauce
1/2 tsp sesame oil
1/2 tsp rice vinegar
1 tsp sugar
optional: chili paste
Instructions:
- In a small skillet, toast sesame seeds until golden brown. Set aside.
- Pat tofu dry and place in a large bowl. Mash with fork until it resembles scrambled or chopped eggs.
- Mix in egg whites or egg replacer, flour, ginger, green onions, carrots, peas, soy sauce, and salt and pepper to taste. Blend well.
- In a large nonstick skillet, heat sesame oil. Add about 1 / 4 cup of tofu mix per cake to skillet, flatten with spoon.
- Cook until golden brown, about 3 or 4 minutes per side.
- Make sauce in a bowl, and serve with cakes. Garnish with sesame seeds.
