I read an article on "Tofu" recently.It has low GI and adds lesser calorific value - which means it is good for weight loss.It also contains good amount of calcium, iron , amino acids and other micro nutrients.
Even kids allergic to milk and milk products are recommended to go for Soya and its products
Needless to say I got this recipe from a TV show but I altered it
This is done on a Tawa and not deep fried
Ingredients
- Tofu - 1 packet (200g)
- Roasted gram flour - 1 cup
- Rice flour - 1/4 cup
- Chilly Powder - 2 teaspoons or as needed
- Salt - 1 teaspoon
- Lemon juice - 1/2 teaspoon(optional)
- Chopped coriander leaves - little
- Crushed oates - as required
- Oil - for shallow fry
Note: The original recipe uses only Besan Flour.Green chilly paste is used instead of chilly powder.Lemon and coriander were not included
Method
- Wash the tofu bar in running water once
- Cut into thin slices / lengthwise
- Meanwhile mix roasted gram flour, rice flour, chilly powder and salt.Pour water carefully to form a thick batter
- Add lemon juice if needed.Put chopped coriander leaves and mix well
- Now dip each and every cut tofu slice in the batter and coat with crushed oats.See the picture below
- Heat a tawa.Spread one teaspoon of oil in it
- Carefully toast the coated tofu one by one
- Make sure it is toasted well on all the sides.The colour will be golden brown
- Repeat the same process for each and every coated tofu
- It will be crispy.Serve hot with tomato sauce
