Quick and easy tofu recipes?

Question

Do you know any tofu recipes which are quick, easy and yummy?

Answer 1

My favorite tofu recipe is chocolate mousse. Blend firm tofu with melted dark chocolate chips and sweetener (optional), then chill. The texture is incredible.

Answer 2

To be yummi its almost never quick and easy... But ifyou want quick and easy this is yummy to me. (I make it when I'm starving or in a hurry).

1 onion chunked
1 bell pepper chunked
a couple of slices of tofu
enough vegetable oil to cover the bottom of a skillet

Heat the oil, with the onions and pepper, add the tofu slices.
Move the stuff a bit so it does'nt stick. Turn the tofu slices, so they cook on both sides. Once the togu is a golden colour on both sides, remove from heat. Add a couple of table spoons of spare ribs sauce that you buy in a jar, directly on the tofu.
serve with rice!


Tofu salad sandwish

Crush a bit of tofu

some chopped green onions
mayonnaise
a pinch of parsley
salt and pepper
2 slices of whole wheat bread
some alfalfa sprouts
Voilà!

Cubes of tofu is also good when added to a pakage of oriental soup. I also add pieces of brocoly and red bell peppers. Delicious and very easy.

Answer 3

This is a great recipe. Just sub veggie stock for chicken stock.


Hot and Sour Soup

1 cake bean curd (tofu)
3 to 4 Chinese dried mushrooms, soaked
1 pint good chicken stock
1 Tbsp. rice wine or sherry
1 Tbsp. soy sauce
1 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes
1 tsp white pepper
1 Tbsp. vinegar
1 tsp salt
1 Tbsp. corn starch
2 Tbsp. shredded Bamboo shoots
1 egg, beaten

Thinly slice bean curd and the mushrooms. Bring the stock to a rolling boil, add the pork, bean curd and mushrooms, simmer for 2 to 3 minutes, then add wine, soy sauce, peppers, vinegar and salt. Now blend the corn starch with a little cold water to make a smooth paste, pour into the soup slowly, stirring all the time. Add bamboo shoots and beaten egg in a thin stream, stirring constantly until egg cooks. Serve as soon as the soup thickens.

Answer 4

If you literally have no time and don't want to break your wallet on ingredients, simply pat the tofu dry and slice into thumb-sized bricks. Pan fry until golden brown and crispy and cover with a teryaki bbq sauce or any other one of your favorite bbq sauces, and sesame seeds.

It's simple and delicious. It's also $9 at a typical sushi house, and now you can make it for next to nothing, with a little preparation.
