this recipe as is is a good place to start. i season the cornstarch, for instance. i'd like to tell others though -- try and use at least 1" cubes. too small, and you might lose the flavor of the tofu -- unless that's what you're going for! ths recipe is versitle and great fun. thanks!

Used this method of preparing tofu with a General's Tso's sauce I found on this site. It was the perfect consistancy. Thanks!

I made this using medium firm tofu instead as that better approximates Agedashi Tofu. It was harder to work with but so much better!

Awesome simple recipe that you can do so many things with. Play around with the spices, sauces, and sizes and you will come out with a lot of variety. You can put them on salds, place them in salads, and the basic recipe provided is awesome by itself. Very traditional.

Very authentic in taste and texture (lived in Japan for 8 yrs). Instead of hoisin sauce, I combined chicken broth and soy sauce (about a 2:1 ratio) and fresh lemon juice - (adjust to taste).

I had never had/cooked tofu, so I thought this was an easy recipe to try. I added salt, pepper, cumin, and garlic to the cornstarch! I also cubed the tofu into smaller bite size bites and squezzed lemon juice on top when they were done cooking along with some kosher salt and the green onions. My kids (3 & 5) loved it, they thought it was cheese though and i didn't correct them! It was good, I think i would add some seasoning directly to the tofu next time before i dredge it in the cornstarch, just for a little more flavor! I am not afraid of tofu any more.

As followed, the recipe is bland. I added black pepper, salt, and lawry's seasoned salt to the corn starch. For the dipping sauce, I didn't like the hoisin sauce with tofu. I much prefer the broth, lemon juice, and soy sauce with chopped green onion as suggested by a previous reviewer. Very good and similar to agadashi tofu served at my favorite Japanese restaurant. Thanks!

Recipe was very simple yet really effective and very tasty. An interesting texture that accompanied the 'wet' dishes well. Will definitely be making this again.

I had never thought of frying tofu when I read this recipe. I already had my tofu, but didn't want to make a special trip to the store for hoisin sauce. SO I cut my tofu into 24 cubes (because 12 were too big.) Then I pressed the tofu in paper towels to get out as much water as possible. Then, with 12 cubes, I put cumin, oregano, garlic and salt (all to taste) in cornstarch and fried them. Drained them and had in salad. Yum!Yum! The other 12, I put cinnamon in cornstarch and then fried (seperate pan) them. Drained them and then ate with yogurt. Not too sweet, but that's the way I like things! Rolling them in sugar right out of the pan, and then draining them, would definitely sweeten them up. I liked this new (to me) idea of tofu. Next time, maybe crumbling the tofu before rolling in cornstarch for toppings?

I won't make this again, it was lacking in flavor and the grease made my tummy feel sick. What I would consider Junky health food the grease takes away the benefits of the tofu.

This is my favourite way to cook up tofu! Crispy outside, soft inside. Drizzle some hoisin sauce on top and serve with a small bowl of soy sauce and you're set. Great with a green salad and sliced cucumbers.

Found tofu in the fridge, was hungry, so came here looking for a recipe. This one looked quick and easy enough. I didn't have the cornstarch, so I used Progresso Italian bread crumbs and sauted it in olive oil w/green onions. My husband was curious to know what smelled so good. I put some steamed rice in a bowl with a little soy sauce, then topped it with the tofu. It really tasted great for a quick meal. I can't wait to try it as it is written, but for now the Italian bread crumbs got me through in a pinch!

Finally, a recipe that describes how real Thai restaurants make their tofu! I've never been able to make my tofu turn out well, and now I know the secret.. corn starch. Really fabulous!
