Breaded Deep Fried Tofu Served with Gochujang Remoulade Dipping Sauce


About The Recipe

 

This dish offers a delightful twist on the classic deep-fried tofu. The tofu is coated in a crispy breadcrumb mixture and fried until golden brown, providing a satisfying crunch with each bite. The star of the dish is the Gochujang Remoulade, a creamy and spicy dipping sauce that perfectly complements the mild flavor of the tofu. The remoulade, with its blend of Gochujang paste, mayonnaise, and herbs, adds a rich and complex flavor profile to the dish. This combination of crunchy tofu and flavorful sauce creates an appetizing and versatile dish, perfect as a starter, snack, or part of a larger meal.
