TOFU WITH HOT AND SWEET SAUCE

Preparation Method :

• Pat away any moisture from the tofu (bean curd), using absorbent kitchen paper (paper towels).
• Heat the oil in a large wok or frying pan (skillet) until very hot.
• Add the tofu (bean curd) to the wok and cook in batches for about 5 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
• Remove the tofu (bean curd) with a slotted spoon, transfer to absorbent kitchen paper (paper towels) and leave to drain.
• To make the peanut and chili sauce, mix together the crunchy peanut butter, sweet chili sauce, coconut milk, tomatos puree (paste) and chopped salted peanuts in a bowl.
• Add a little boiling water if necessary to achieve a smooth consistency.
• Stir well until the ingredients are thoroughly blended.
• Transfer the tofu (bean curd) to serving plates and pour the sauce over the top.
• Alternatively, pour the sauce into a serving dish and serve separately.
