Thai Peanut Tofu- 1 block tofu diced
- 1 cup flour
- 1 cup arrowroot
- 1 cup of chunky peanut butter
- 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
- 1/3 cup sweet chili ginger sauce
- 1/4 cup scallions chopped
- enough oil to fry tofu
- salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tbs black sesame seeds for garnish
Preheat oven to 350. In a large bowl mix flour, arrowroot, and a pinch of salt. Toss tofu with flour mixture being careful not to break up tofu. Let sit for 5 minutes and give it another toss. Add oil to frying pan and carefully place tofu in the pan. Once tofu is golden brown remove from pan and place on oven sheet pan. Bake tofu for 20 minutes or until crispy. Mix the peanut, teriyaki, and chili sauce in a food processor. Add hot water until mixture smooths out. Remove tofu from oven and drain excess oil. Toss with Thai peanut sauce, garnish with sesame seeds. Try this with soba noodles, and snow peas.
