Fried tofu – by Cvijeta Mesić
Fried tofu - an ideal combination for breakfast or lunch.
The most famous soy products are tofu, miso (fermented soy paste) and shoyu (natural soy sauce). While miso paste and shoyu are still more protein additions to meals, tofu is a food that can be used as one of the pillars of a healthy diet, in the same way that meat and dairy products are used as a regular diet. From the body's point of view, the protein that tofu has is no different than the protein that chicken has.
While many high-protein foods, such as meat, dairy products or beans can cause people to have digestive problems, tofu is very easily digestible, much more so than cooked soybeans. That is why it can be an excellent food for babies, elderly people and, as we have already mentioned, for those who have problems with digestion. Phyto estrogen from tofu is very suitable for menopausal women.
Tofu is also an ideal diet food because it does not contain many calories. It can be used in countless ways: in soups, sandwiches, salads, fried, baked in the oven, as a spread, used to make cakes, etc... which all depends on the imagination and creativity of the cook.

Fried tofu – by Cvijeta Mesić
- 1 package of tofu
- 2 tablespoons of shoyu soy sauce
- 1 tablespoons of oil
- A little bit of water
- Ginger juice
- 1 teaspoon rice syrup (or honey)
- A little hot sauce (optional)
- Garlic (crushed (quantity as desired))
- Corn flour (or half corn - half wholemeal)
- Oil for frying
- From the listed ingredients (except flour) make a marinade in which tofu cut into slices stands for about twenty minutes. Drain the tofu and roll each piece in flour and fry in oil until golden brown. Make a sauce from the remaining marinade - put the marinade in a saucepan and add 1 tablespoon of kuzu mixed in cold water (or another thickener) and mix the sauce until it thickens, then pour it over the tofu. Pleasant.
