Crispy Tofu


I am not the biggest fan of tofu, but every once in a while I find a way to cook it that is good and not all wet and mushy. I found this recipe through Pinterest and my whole family loved it!

Recipe from www.vegandad.blogspot.com

1 block firm tofu, drained and cut into 10-11 equal slices.
Olive oil for frying

Mix together well:
3/4 cups flour
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. poultry seasoning
1 tsp. paprika
a pinch of black pepper

In a separate bowl whisk:
1 cup almond milk
2 Tbs. mustard
2 Tbs. hot sauce
1/2 tsp. salt

In another bowl:
1 cup panko bread crumbs

After you cut tofu into slices, line a cookie sheet with a towel, put tofu on it, cover with another towel, and another cookie sheet. Place a few cans of food, or something heavy on top of cookie sheet to help drain the tofu. Leave for 15 minutes.

After you have drained tofu, get some oil heating on medium heat in a large frying pan. Next, you will dip your tofu slices in the milk, then dredge in the flour mixture, back in the milk, then cover with the panko crumbs. Cook 4-5 slices at a time turning every 3-4 minutes until they are golden.
