Method
Prepare the Tofu
- 1
Press the firm tofu to remove excess moisture. Cut the tofu block into quarters to create pockets.
Make the Spicy Crab Mix
- 2
In a bowl, combine the crab meat, mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, chopped green onions, and sesame oil. Mix until well combined.
Stuff the Tofu
- 3
Carefully stuff each tofu pocket with the spicy crab mixture.
Prepare the Tempura Batter
- 4
In a bowl, mix the tempura batter mix with ice water until just combined. Do not overmix.
Fry the Tofu
- 5
Heat vegetable oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Dip each stuffed tofu pocket into the tempura batter and carefully place it in the hot oil. Fry until golden and crispy, about 3-4 minutes on each side.
Serve
- 6
Remove the fried tofu pockets from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with eel sauce drizzled on top or on the side for dipping.
