PAN FRIED MASALA TOFU | SUPER QUICK & EASY TOFU RECIPE

[@design-flux]

Hot salted water helps firm tofu up to reduce breakage. Just bring a a pot with salted water to a boil, turn off, add tofu and remove from the burner. Let it sit for at least ten minutes. The osmosis of the salt water extracts more liquid and helps develop the proteins.

[@design-flux]

After the water is cooled to Luke warm remove the tofu and proceed with recipe.

[@CurriesWithBumbi]

Thanks so much for that tip.

[@HissingKitty2008]

I’ve noticed that freezing improves the texture - I don’t know how, but it does.

[@megcasey9902]

Only Bumbi could say “Pishy Pashy…Mashy Dashy” and we not only know exactly what she means, but completely love and embrace the phrase. Well done, as always. Bumbi is my go to channel whenever I need cooking ideas and a mental uplift.

[@CurriesWithBumbi]

Thanks for all your support and for your lovely comment.

[@Ace_Hunter_lives]

Can we all take a moment to appreciate Bumbi's wonderfully dry and quirky sense of humor in her videos? "All that masala love you showed in the beginning will turn bitter"? Ha! I love it.

[@CurriesWithBumbi]

Thank You 😀

[@megcasey9902]

You are my people! The “pishy pashy mashy dashy” literally had me laughing out loud, and hitting the back button over and over. Bumbi is such a gem.

[@Stenly17]

I lost it at "getting a pishy-pashy tofu that will get all mashy-dashy"

[@SuperSuperpenisman]

I love her delivery

[@mrpurohitjii]

That's the first thing I noticed in the video..that sense of humour. I am sure food served with that ingredient would taste even yummier than what I would with exact same amount of msala love.

[@bhavikasicka7871]

Tofu in any form is relished by Navika the most .Can’t wait to try this along with yogurt mint dip (blending few mint leaves, coriander leaves,2garlic cloves,1 green chilli, chatmasala,lime juice, salt n yogurt)..M sure it vl taste yummy🤤 Thank u soo much for the recipe dear🫶🤗Wishing u a Happy weekend

That is a wonderful dip. Thanks for sharing with everyone. Lots of love for darling Navika 💕💕💕💕

[@nominou6]

Nice recipe. First time I'm doing tofu like that. Not the last time ! Firm tofu : try freezing the tofu when you get it from the store and keep it in the freezer until the day before you need it. This will produce a firm tofu by itself. I buy tofu in unnamed 1.5 kg blocks so I chop it in 4 large blocks, place each in a freezer ziploc bag then freeze them and keep them there. This technique of producing firm tofu was found centuries ago in northern Japan during winters. Nice to start any tofu recipe with a tofu that already has a bite to it. EDIT : I saw it was suggested previously and you prefer the squeeze/strain tofu texture. Both has its uses I guess. The freezer approach requires no extra work at all. Thanks for the recipes !

[@CurriesWithBumbi]

Thank you

[@pinkmonkeybird2644]

You can buy a tofu press that both helps draw out excess water and allows the marinade to get deeper into the tofu. I was skeptical at first, but it really does the job. Thank you for this recipe; we eat a lot of tofu in my house and this was a definite hit. I like to eat this in naan that has been spread with a bit of tamarind chutney and green chutney. It’s kind of like grilled cheese sandwiches but better.

[@CurriesWithBumbi]

Thanks for trying this recipe

Which curry power to use instead of your homemade? Look delish!

[@CurriesWithBumbi]

You can use any curry powder on market or Madras curry powder

[@pieceofcake-on3tx]

Anyone who messed up with the tofu sticking to the pan like me - add 2tbsp of starch and mash everything up together in the pan, make it like a pancake shape and add oil around the rim. Flip it once one side is crispy.

[@CurriesWithBumbi]

Oh no. Sorry about that. Please use a parchment paper next time over the pan.
