    Excellent twist for tofu. I used firm tofu and szechuan pepper as well as white pepper and seasalt. Served wtih sweet chilli sauce. Easy. thanks

    Next time I would add a little less salt a little and dust tofu portions in the flour mixture right before frying instead ofdoing this earlier and setting aside. (Even though I drained the silken tofu and then gently dabbed it with a paper towel before coating in the flour mixture, after a few minutes, the remaining moisture in the tofu made the flour coating wet and gluggy and then the coating began to fall off!. I managed to salvage them with left-over flour mixture and all was fine) Serve with Japanese mayo.

    The recipe struck me as a bit bland so i added five spice to the flour mix and also fried off some chilli and spring onions until just starting to caramalise. This was sprinkled over the top before serving. Rave reviews!
