Fried Taukwa with Honey Peanut


I created this recipe with inspiration from a local dish called Rojak which uses prawn sauce and peanuts. I opted to make a sweet version instead.

Ingredients
1 pc of tau kwa extra firm tofu
Honey
1 tablespoon fine sugar
2 tablespoon of crushed peanut
Cornflour
Some cooking oil

Method
Cut a piece of tau kwa into 12 pcs.
Make sure you dry tau kwa.
Coat with corn flour n fry till golden brown.
Set aside on plate.
Mix 2 tablespoon of crushed peanuts with one tablespoon of fine sugar.
Drizzle honey onto tofu .
Scatter sugar peanuts on top n serve.


After frying - absorb oil using kitchen paper towels.


Drizzle honey - I love orange blossom honey.


Mix 1 tablespoon of sugar with 2 tablespoon of crushed peanuts

Plate it and serve! You can also serve with your own sambal chilli if you prefer a spicier dish.
 
Enjoy cooking!
