A delightful twist on tofu, these crispy bites are packed with flavor and perfect for any occasion.
Press the tofu to remove excess moisture by placing it between two plates and adding a weight on top for 15 minutes.
Pressing tofu removes moisture, allowing it to absorb flavors better and achieve a crispier texture.
Cut the tofu into bite-sized cubes.
Uniformly sized cubes ensure even cooking and a consistent texture.
Mix the hot sauce, barbecue sauce, black pepper, and garlic powder in a bowl.
Adjust the hot sauce quantity to control the spiciness level.
Marinate the tofu cubes in the sauce mixture for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
Marinating longer enhances the flavor absorption into the tofu.
Combine the flour, salt, cayenne, and paprika in a separate bowl.
Sift the flour mixture to ensure even distribution of spices.
Coat the marinated tofu cubes in the flour mixture.
Shake off excess flour to prevent clumping during frying.
Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat.
Ensure the oil is hot enough by testing with a small piece of coated tofu.
Fry the tofu cubes in batches until golden brown on all sides.
Avoid overcrowding the pan to maintain the oil temperature.
Serve the crispy tofu bites with your favorite dipping sauce.
Pair with a fresh salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
