Thai food has become 1 of Malaysian favourites for a long time due to their geographical location which is just northern of Malaysia. Most of the Thai food stall or restaurants are run by the Kelantanese, people from Kelantan which is a northern Malaysian state and bordering Thailand.
Visits to the Thai restaurants here in the US I realise that they always have deep fried tofu in their menu. Frankly speaking, I dont remember if I have ever ordered this from the Thai stalls or restaurants back home. It is however very easy to make. So if you crave for this dish, save the $8 and make them yourself.
Deep-Fried tofu with Sweet Spicy Sauce
1 pack firm tofu, dry pat and cuts into squares or other shapes
Oil for deep frying
1. In a deep pan or wok, heat the oil and deep fry tofu until golden brown.
2. Use paper towel to rid of excess oil.
For the sauce, I use mae ploy sweet chili sauce and added some ground peanuts to it. You can use any other kind of sweet chili sauce.
