Description
Chinese five-spice powder turns tofu into a party staple in these cubs of delight, which are served with a homemade chilli honey.
Method
Step 1 of 5
Pat tofu dry with paper towel and cut into 12 pieces.
Step 2 of 5
In three separate bowls, place flour and spice powder, egg and sesame seeds. One at a time, toss tofu in flour mixture, dip in egg, then press into sesame seeds to lightly coat. Place on a large plate.
Step 3 of 5
Heat oil in a large, deep non-stick frying pan over high heat. Shallow-fry tofu, in batches, for 1 minute each side or until golden brown. Transfer to paper towel to drain.
Step 4 of 5
Meanwhile, combine honey, sweet chilli sauce, lime juice and chilli in a small saucepan. Stir over low heat for 2 minutes to infuse flavours. Remove from heat. Cool (mixture will thicken).
Step 5 of 5
Arrange tofu on a serving board. Drizzle with half of the chilli honey. Place the remaining chilli honey in a bowl and serve with small skewers.
