LEARN HOW TO MAKE A SUPER CRISPY VEGETARIAN / VEGAN GENERAL TSO'S TOFU RECIPE TODAY!

LAY HO MA (how's it going in Cantonese)! Strap on your seatbelts because this extraordinarily crispy recipe will have you jumping out of your seat (and into the kitchen that is)! Join me in this episode and learn how to make the most amazing and tasty Chinese style General Tso's tofu recipe. Let's begin!

General Tso's Tofu Ingredients:
350g extra firm tofu
2 tsp soy sauce
2 tsp maple syrup
1 tsp toasted sesame oil
1 + 1/2 cup all purpose flour
3/4 cups water
2 1/2 cups avocado oil

Directions:
1. Pat dry the extra firm tofu with a paper towel. Then, break into medium bite sized pieces
2. Add the soy sauce, maple syrup, and toasted sesame oil to the tofu and toss to combine. Set aside and let it marinate for a few minutes
3. Set up a station of two plates, one for dry and one for wet. Add 1 cup of flour to the dry plate. Add 1/2 cup flour and 3/4 cups of water to the wet plate. Use a fork to dissolve the flour (you can add more flour or water to this recipe as needed)
4. Add half of the tofu to the dry plate and coat. Then, transfer the tofu to the wet plate and coat. Then, transfer back to the dry plate and coat again. Set the coated tofu pieces aside and repeat with the remaining tofu
5. Add the avocado oil to a frying pan and heat up on medium heat for a few minutes (stick a bamboo chopstick in the oil, if there's fast moving bubbles, it's ready)
6. Carefully place in half of the tofu pieces and fry for 46min. When they start to turn golden brown, carefully turn the tofu over. Fry the other side for 34min. Then, carefully transfer onto a cooling rack. Repeat with the remaining tofu

General Tso's Sauce Ingredients:
3 pieces garlic
small piece ginger
1 tbsp chili oil (   • Most addictive Red Chili Oil Recipe t...  )

1 1/2 tbsp maple syrup

1 tsp black vinegar
1 tsp potato starch
2 tbsp water
2 tsp white sesame seeds

Directions:
1. Finely chop the garlic and ginger
2. Heat up a sauté pan to medium heat and add the chili oil, garlic, and ginger. Cook for a few minutes
3. Add the dried red chilies and sauté for a couple of minutes
4. Add the maple syrup, plantbased oyster sauce, soy sauce, dark soy sauce, and black vinegar. Stir and cook the sauce for about a minute
5. Make a slurry by combining the potato starch with the water. Then, pour the slurry into the sauce while stirring. If the sauce looks too thick, stir in a little more water
6. Add the crispy tofu and stir around to coat
7. Plate the tofu and garnish with white sesame seeds
