TOFU BOM ALA CHEF FARAH QUINN

This was absolutely delicious. Mashed tofu, breaded and deep fried. It's crispy outside and soft inside. I was waiting for a friend to pick me up for dinner and watched a cooking show on TV. Program hosted by an Indonesia Chef named Farah Quinn, It was a brief demonstration on how she prepared the Tofu. I couldn't resist trying the recipe and the moment I reached home bought some tofu and made one small batch. This recipe is unique and versatile, you can serve this as appetizer or finger food or even as a side dish accompany your main course. 

Don't ask me why it was named "tofu bomb", it don't explode while cooking or even when you eat it, the only thing that I can figure out may be it looks like a small grenade....may be !!!!. Anyway I love this.

Tofu Bom dari Chef sexy Farah Quinn, jangan tanya saya kenapa namanya "bom" , resipi ini tidak meletup semasa menggoreng atau pun semasa memakanya. Kemungkinan besar dinamakan bom mungkin kerana bentuknya yang bulat sekan bom tangan. Menarik resipi ini ialah ia sesuai dijadi sebagai sajian pembuka selera mahupun sebgai sajian minum petang. Cara membuatnya sama seperti membuat bergedil atau burger. Semua bahan di masukkan dalam processor, kemudian dikukus dan digoreng celup serbuk roti. Untuk menambahkan tarikkan pada resipi ini udang diletak menonggeng ke atas. Sedap dimakan bersama sos cili Thai.
