Tips:
- Use extra firm or firm tofu for the best texture. Extra firm tofu holds its shape better and won't crumble as easily as softer tofu.
- Press the tofu before cooking to remove excess water. This will help the tofu to brown and crisp up.
- Crumble the tofu into small pieces before cooking. This will help it to cook evenly.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. If you crowd the pan, the tofu will steam instead of fry.
- Cook the tofu over medium heat. This will help it to cook evenly without burning.
- Season the tofu with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.
- Serve the tofu with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include salsa, guacamole, sour cream, and cheese.
