Salt & pepper tofu image

Use both types of peppercorns for our salt & pepper tofu if you can, for a tongue-tingling kick and a spicy warmth. The dish is great for a Chinese banquet

Provided by Cassie Best

Categories     Dinner, Side dish, Supper

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

396g pack firm tofu
2 tbsp cornflour
1 tsp Sichuan or black peppercorns (or a mixture of the two), ground to a powder
2 tbsp sunflower or vegetable oil
2 red peppers , sliced
¼ broccoli head, cut into very small florets
100g beansprouts
2 tsp low-salt soy sauce
sesame oil , for drizzling
handful of coriander , leaves picked

Steps:

  • Drain the tofu, wrap loosely in kitchen paper and put on a plate. Rest a chopping board on top. If you're using a light chopping board, weigh it down with a couple of cans - a heavier chopping board will be sufficient on its own. Leave for 10-20 mins until the cloth feels wet from the excess liquid. Pressing the tofu like this helps to give it a firmer texture once cooked.
  • Cut the tofu in half down the centre like a book. Cut each piece into four triangles, as you would a piece of toast, then in half again to give you 16 pieces in total. Mix the cornflour, ground pepper and 1 tsp flaky sea salt on a plate. Gently turn each piece of tofu in the cornflour mix to coat.
  • Heat 1 tbsp oil in a wok. Stir-fry the peppers and broccoli for a few minutes, to soften a little. Add the beansprouts and soy sauce. Cook for another 1-2 mins, making sure the veg still has a nice crunch. Drizzle with a little sesame oil.
  • Heat the remaining sunflower oil in a large non-stick frying pan and fry the coated tofu for 5 mins on each side until crisp. Serve on top of the vegetables, scattered with the coriander.

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb firm tofu
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

  • Toss the tofu cubes with cornstarch to coat.

  • Slice the tofu into ½ inch (1 cm) thick, 1 ½ inch x 2 inch (4x5 cm) rectangles. Make the brine by stirring together the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, sugar, and warm water. Place the tofu into the brine for 1-2 hours.
  • Combine the salt, ground white pepper, Sichuan peppercorn powder, and sand ginger powder. You’ll use half of this salt and pepper spice mix for the tofu coating and the other half to finish the dish in the wok.
  • Heat 4 tablespoons oil in your wok over low heat for 30 seconds. Add the garlic. It should bubble and sizzle very slowly at this low heat and not burn. Be patient, because burnt garlic has a very bitter flavor. Move the garlic around in the oil so it cooks evenly. It’s done when it has turned a light golden brown.
  • Heat the oil in the wok over medium-high heat. Place the tofu in the wok in a single layer, and brown the tofu, adjusting the heat as needed. Don’t walk away, as you don’t want to burn the crust! After the tofu starts to brown, flip the tofu to brown the other side. When done, transfer the tofu to a plate.
