Ingredients
- 2 lbs. extra firm tofu
- 1 Knorr Chicken Cube
- 2 teaspoons Knorr Liquid Seasoning
- 2 eggs beaten
- ¾ cup water
- 2 cups cooking oil
Breading ingredients:
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup cornstarch
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- Salt and ground black pepper to taste
Chicken gravy ingredients:
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 Knorr Chicken Cube
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 3/4 cup water
Instructions
- Freeze the tofu overnight. Thaw and slice into serving pieces. Press to extract the liquid from it. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, melt half of the Knorr chicken cube in ¾ cups water. Add Knorr Liquid seasoning. Pour the mixture over the tofu. Press the tofu to absorb the marinade. Let it stay for 10 minutes.
- While marinating, make the chicken gravy. Melt butter in a saucepan. Add all-purpose flour. Cook in while stirring for 5 to 8 minutes or until the roux browns enough. Add Knorr Chicken Cube. Stir until melted. Pour water into the saucepan. Stir until well blended. Add onion powder, garlic powder, and ground black pepper. Continue cooking for 1 minute. Set aside.
- Combine breading ingredients in a bowl. Using a cheese grater, grate the remaining Knorr chicken cube and combine with the breading mixture. Mix well.
- Heat oil in a pan.
- Gently press the marinated tofu to release the liquid marinade. Dredge it into the flour mixture, dip in beaten egg, and then dredge it back again in flour. Fry one side until golden brown. Turn it over and do the same to the opposite side. Remove from the pan and arrange on a serving plate.
- Serve with chicken gravy and rice. Share and enjoy!
