Tips: tofu can not be fried directly, should be steamed and then fried, so there are 3 benefits, the first can remove the soybean smell; the second after steaming the tofu becomes tough, the next pot of fried will not be broken; the third steaming out of tofu in the excess water, so that the tofu is drier, deep-fried without splattering the oil, but also more puffy. Most people do not do this step, no wonder the tofu is always fried bad.

The third step, the pot into the appropriate amount of oil, high heat until 70% hot, slightly smoke when turning to medium-low heat, into the tofu deep-fried.
