Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Crispy Taiwanese Fried Tofu.
Step 1
Start by slicing the tofu in half lengthwise, then cut it into delightful 1/4-inch thick squares.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, Chinese black vinegar, sesame oil, and a touch of white sugar to create a flavorful sauce that you’ll set aside for later.
Step 3
Next, heat a generous drizzle of olive oil in a large nonstick pan over medium heat.

Once the oil is shimmering, toss in the minced garlic and chopped green onions, letting them sizzle for about 20 seconds until they fill your kitchen with a mouthwatering aroma.
Step 5
Gently add the tofu squares to the pan, taking care to brown them nicely on each side, which should take just a few minutes.

When the tofu is beautifully golden, pour the prepared sauce over it, allowing it to soak in and infuse the tofu with its rich flavors for an additional 2 to 3 minutes.
