Preparation of Tofu
1. Crisp the Tofu

3. Coat Tofu
Sprinkle cornstarch over the marinated tofu and toss to coat evenly.
4. Fry Tofu
In a large skillet or wok, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the tofu cubes and fry until golden and crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.
