- Cook tofu until crispy. about 2 minutes Flip and crisp other side. Drizzle with sauce at table.
- NOTE: To get this tofu to crisp you MUST, I repeat MUST drain. To do this place the tofu on a slant board and place a heavy weight such as a plate and a cookbook on top of the tofu. Let it sit until the water stops running.
- You can change the texture of this by freezing the tofu. After freezing drain as directed.
- IF you do NOT DRAIN? It will NOT brown or get crispy.

My boyfriend is lactose intolerant so we made this with a mushroom roux instead of yogurt and the sauce turned out great. He loved the tofu, but I found it to be too plain. We also used half as many eggs and had some left over to spare. We used a whole wheat bread for the crumbs which we dried out in a 200 over for 20 minutes or so. He especially loved their crunch. All of our guests were really impressed as it plated nicely. I would definately make this again.

I WILL NOT say they are Vegetarian or Vegan any longer due to the database changes. I DO NOT WISH YOU TO RECOMMEND THEM. Consider them as faulty. It's your own fault if you trust them. Don't bother to review.
Don't ask me a question. I won't answer. I'm not here anymore.
I will NOT warrent any recipe on this site put up by me as correct due to Scripps problems. IF they claim to have fixed it, I still do not warrent any recipe as correct except the ones that I put up personally on the tripod site so use any recipe posted under my name at your own risk. Basic? Lots of luck.
Now the ones at chef.philocrates.tripod.com [see De Gustibus Veg*n in link on top], yeah, I will take responsiblity for all of them and the ingredients. I put them up and any errors are all mine.
No the door didn't hit me on the ### but the skid marks in the parking lot are mine.
