Golden Bowl
Recipe from
Vegetarian Times
The secret to this recipe is double-frying the tofu cubes to give them an extra-crisp exterior. We've added a selection of sauteed vegetables to the mix, but feel free to adapt the basic recipe to your tastes and preferences. This recipe was a winner in our 2008 Restaurant Poll, and is a popular entree at The Grit in Athens, Georgia.
