Need a piece of tofu, carrots, shallots, salt, oyster sauce, sesame oil, spiced powder and eggs.

Production steps

1. First, we need to prepare an old piece of tofu. Tender tofu is not good. Old tofu has a hard texture and less water content. Best for making meatballs. Crush tofu with a spoon. If you think there is still a little more water in tofu, you can squeeze the water with gauze again, which will greatly increase the chance of success.

2. I bought an old tofu, squeezed a little water with gauze, and cut some chopped green onion and carrot, because we didn't put meat in this meatball, and it would be better to put some carrots and chopped green onion.

3. Add a spoonful of salt, a spoonful of oyster sauce, a little sesame oil, five-spice powder, and an egg, and grab it evenly by hand. The purpose of adding eggs is to prevent the pan from spreading after it is hot.

4. After the tofu and seasoning are mixed evenly, add two spoonfuls of starch, which will increase the viscosity of the tofu and make it easier to form a ball.

Many people like to squeeze tofu balls with tiger's mouth, which is quick to operate, but the balls are generally irregular. I like to knead the meatballs into balls first, and then put them in the pot, so that the meatballs are the same size and are not easy to spread.

6. Heat the oil in the pot and fry it in the pot with 60% to 70% oil temperature. If you don't like frying, you can also cook it in boiling water or steam it in a pot. Such meatballs are not easy to spread out. Turn it a few times in the middle to make the meatballs evenly heated.

7. When the surface of meatballs turns brown, they can be cooked. At this time, meatballs are crispy and super delicious. Whether cooking or making soup, it's super good.

You can make more at one time, fry them, put them in the refrigerator and carry them with you. This vegetarian tofu meatball is more delicious than meatballs, and it is the best source of high-quality protein for vegetarian lovers. Try it if you like.
