Notes

  1. You can use corn starch instead of rice flour. I did not have corn starch hence used rice flour.
  2. Add Red chili and garlic paste enhances the taste so do not skip it.
  3. You can bake the tofu instead of frying it. Completely your choice.
  4. I have not added salt as Tamari is used here. You may add soya sauce if you do not have Tamari.
  5. It is a completely Vegan dish.
