Agedashi Tofu

Directions

1. 1
   Cut tofu into 12 cubes. Place cornstarch on a plate or in a shallow bowl and dredge tofu in it, coating thoroughly.
2. 2
   Heat enough oil so that tofu will be half-way submerged. Fry tofu in hot oil for 3 to 5 minutes on each side, or until crispy. Drain on paper towels.
3. 3
   Sprinkle green onions over tofu and drizzle with hoisin sauce. Serve immediately.
4. 4
   You can also try making this with dashi sauce. You just need 1/2 cup Konbu Dashi or dashi soup stock, 1/2 cup mirin and half a cup of light soy sauce. Mix them all together in a saucepan and bring the sauce to a boil.
5. 5
   Pour the dashi sauce over the fried tofu and top with bonito flakes, spring onion and grated radish. Oishi!
