Ingredients

Method

1.In a bowl combine flour, salt, chilli and pepper. Add tofu and coat in seasoned flour.
2.Heat 1/4 cup of rice bran oil in a wok on high. Cook tofu for 5 minutes in batches, turning, until golden. Drain on paper towel.
3.Wipe out wok. Heat remaining oil on medium. Saute garlic and cashews for 2-3 minutes, until coloured. Add vegetables and cook for 3-5 minutes, until tender. Stir in tofu. Serve drizzled with soy sauce.

Drain tofu and if time permits, press lightly with a plate for a short while, to remove some of excess liquid. Using an oil that can reach a high temperature without burning is important when it comes to frying tofu. Rice bran oil is perfect for this.
