Meatless day : Tofu croutons

P1180862
I often use tofu as meat substitute whenever I cooked them. It is such versatile food that can soak up any flavour you cook them with. This time I've made tofu croutons to go with my asian salad (pasembur or Indian rojak)

Tofu croutons
Inspired by batter recipe from http://kuali.com/recipes/view.aspx?r=1231

Ingredients
300gm firm tofu, cubed
50g plain flour
1/8 tsp baking powder
1/8 tsp salt, or to taste
1/4 tsp sugar
62.5ml water
oil for shallow fry
1 tsp sesame seeds

Method
Combine flour, baking powder, salt, sugar and sesame seeds in a mixing bowl. Mix in water gradually to form a dough. Leave aside for 30 minutes.
Add in cubed tofu into batter to coat.
Heat oil in fry pan shallow fry tofu until golden brown.
Leave aside for use for salad etc.
