Recipe #67 - Citrus Tofu Cutlets

Juice from a lime, a lemon and an orange
Hot sauce to taste
1 tsp. ginger
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tsp. white miso
1 tsp rice vinegar
1/2 tsp soy sauce
1/2 tsp brown sugar
a few pinches of pepper
1 lb. extra firm tofu cut into 4 rectangles
1/2 c. whole wheat flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 c dried bread crumbs
canola oil for fryage

Mix the first 9 ingredients in a zippy bag, then add tofu (don't break it!) and marinate overnight. Pour liquid into a bowl. Combine flour, salt and peps on a plate and put the breadcrumbs on another plate. Dip each tofu cutlet into the marinade, then the flour, then the bread crumbs. You have to do it kind of fast or you get a lot of flour and no breadcrumbs. Maybe you could combine them? I dunno. Anyway, stick them on a plate. Heat some oil in a panto medium-highish. Fry the cutlets 1 minute per side. Drain on paper towels. Munch out.


Mmmmmmm. Next time, I think I'll put the second and third layer together.
