Was very tasty! I found after 1/2 hour it wasn't marinaded enough (not enough kick once cooked) so I will try to marinade for longer next time. It was a great way to eat tofu. I wasn't too crazy about the deep fried idea so would probably pan fry next time for the same crispy flavour. Kids loved them!

I weighted and drained the tofu for 1/2 hr. before following your recipe exactly. It was one of the best tofu dishes I have ever eaten. I will be making this one very often. Thanks so much for sharing this great recipe.
