Best Deep Fried Bean Curd Stir Fried With Mushrooms And Broccoli Recipes

DEEP-FRIED BEAN CURD WITH OYSTER SAUCE

Steps:

• In a wok, heat the oil for deep frying to 375 degrees, or until a piece of scallion placed in the oil bubbles and sizzles rapidly. Pat the tofu cubes dry with a paper towel. Fry the cubes in the oil for about 5 minutes, or until they are golden brown. Drain on paper towels and set aside. When the cubes are cool, cut each one in half.
• Pour off the frying oil from the wok. Over high heat, add the peanut oil to the wok, then the garlic and brown bean sauce, and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the fried bean curd pieces, the water and the bok choy and bring to a boil. Cover the wok, lower the heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Uncover, raise the heat, add the sake or sherry, the sugar and as much of the cornstarch mixture as is needed to thicken the dish, stirring constantly. Add the oyster sauce and scallions and mix well. Garnish with coriander and serve with plain boiled rice.

THERA'S CANADIAN FRIED DOUGH

Steps:

• Mix warm water, yeast, and 1 pinch of sugar in a large bowl, and let stand until the yeast begins to foam and form a creamy layer, about 5 minutes. Stir in milk, 1/3 cup sugar, salt, vanilla extract, eggs, and 1/3 cup vegetable oil until the sugar has dissolved. Mix in about half the whole-wheat flour, and stir until the dough is too stiff to add more flour. Turn the dough out onto a floured surface, and knead in more flour until the dough is no longer sticky. Knead until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes. Form the dough into a ball, place into an oiled bowl, and cover. Let rise until the dough has doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Punch down the dough, knead a few times to reshape it, and pinch off a piece of dough about the size of an egg. Roll the dough ball out into an oval shape about 1/4 inch thick. Place finished fried dough on a cloth and cover while you finish rolling out the pastries.
• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large, deep skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Oil should be at least 4 inches deep. Combine 2 cups of sugar with cinnamon to taste in a shallow dish or pie plate, and set aside.
• Gently lower the pastries, one at a time, into the hot oil, and fry 1 to 2 minutes per side until golden brown. Blot excess oil from fried pastries with paper towels; gently press each pastry into the cinnamon sugar while still warm. Shake off excess sugar.
