Crispy Tofu Slices with Orange Dipping Sauce

January 23, 2010 by epicureanvegan

Crispy Tofu Slices with Orange Dipping Sauce -- Epicurean VeganHoly…mackerel, I have never seen 8oz of tofu disappear so fast. This is was outstanding–I just wish I had made more! The recipe is from The Kind Diet and are so easy to make. The slightly sweet orange dipping sauce gives these a dessert, or even a breakfast quality. They practically melt in your mouth.

INGREDIENTS:
1-8oz pkg savory-flavored baked tofu (I used Westsoy Sesame Peanut flavored and the picture only shows about 1/4 of that)
1/2 C corn flour
1/2 C brown rice flour
Safflower oil
2/3 C orange juice
1/3 C maple syrup

DIRECTIONS:
Cut the baked tofu into slices about 1/4″ thick. Mix the flours together in a shallow bowl. Pour enough oil into a large skillet to cover the bottom of the pan with a thin layer and heat over medium heat. Dip each of the tofu strips into the flour mixture, coating well on all sides. Place the tofu strips in the skillet, and cook until lightly browned on both sides, about 3 mins per side. Transfer the fried tofu strips to a plate lined with paper towels to drain. Stir together the orange juice and syrup in a small bowl. Serve the tofu strips with the dipping sauce along side.
So delicious!
There was quite a bit of leftover flour, so I saved it for another batch, but I would recommend using 2 packages of tofu because there was also quite a bit of sauce left, too. With the orange juice and maple syrup dipping sauce, it would be delish for breakfast. Or try a tamari and brown sugar combo, or teriyaki sauce…the possibilities are really endless and I can’t wait to make more!

The Epicurean Vegan is devoted to those wanting to eat healthy, save animals, and reduce their carbon footprint. My decision to go vegan started out as a quest to get healthier, but the more I learned about veganism, the more I realized how damaging the meat and dairy industries are to the environment and, of course, the animals. And it is for these reasons, that I would never go back to eating or wearing animal products. Ever.
