Slice the Tofu just like french fries.
Marinate them in the bowl of soy sauce for 5 minutes.
Combine flour, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Coat tofu in flour mixture
In skillet - heat oil and then add the tofu
fry til brown
Serve.

You guys should try that...
I ate them and they are really good.

Fried tofu is good... I didn't know that Elvis ate tofu.

I thought he was famous for his deep fried peanut butter sandwiches... Famous or infamous??? lol

Also, if you take your marinade and add a little liquid smoke, you can have a smoked fried tofu sandwich (known as Fakin Bacon).

Here's a recipe that's similar to the one that was on the internet... 10 years ago.
Vegan Bacon

Ingredients:

1 lb firm Tofu, cut into strips shaped like bacon
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
2 tablespoons tamari/shoyu
1 teaspoon Wright's (or other brand) liquid smoke.
1 tablespoon oil (something neutral, not olive or sesame)
Directions:

Fry tofu strips on low or medium heat until they are crispy on the outside. The best way to do this is to lay them in the pan in the oil and let them sit for at least 10 minutes, simmering. They should turn easily after that. Turn them and give them another 10 minutes on the other side.

Mix the tamari/shoyu soy sauce with the liquid smoke first, then take the pan off the heat. Pour the liquid smoke/tamari into the pan and stir the tofu so all sides are coated, then sprinkle the yeast over all, stir some more, over the heat, until the liquid is gone and the tofu is covered with sticky yeast.

Try it. It tastes EXACTLY like bacon.

Another variation is to marinate the tofu in the tamari/liquid smoke mixture for several hours and then fry, but it misses a little bit without the nutritional yeast.

That sounds pretty good, although I find with tofu the longer you let it sit in your flavorant the better. :) I let mine sit in spices, soy sauce, or black bean paste over night if I can, because I love that extra kick of flavor. I'm sure Elvis would be down with it too!
