My dear Tamby, soft tofu is no good for frying.
It is only good for steaming. You can fry firm tofu.
Even firm tofu you need not deep fry. You can shallow fry.
There will not be much oil. I usually shallow fry to add to my noodles.
I add it raw when I cook beans sprouts with it.
I am posting pictures of soft tofu and firm tofu.
Today I grilled firm tofu for lunch.
I will post the recipe. Take care, Kugan98

Tamby, here is the recipe for grilled tofu. Kugan98
GRILLED TOFU
Ingredients:
10 firm tofu, sliced horizontally
Marinate:
1 tbs of honey
1 tsp very finely grated ginger
1 tsp very finely grated garlic
1 tbs thick soy sauce
1 tsp red chillie powder
2 tsp Japanese sesame sauce
1 tbs of sesame oil
Lime to garnish
Onion slices to garnish
Method:
Marinate the tofu slices in the above marinate, for about 3 hours.
Apply little sesame oil to the grilling pan.
Arrange the tofu slices and grill them in an oven.
Pour the marinate in a saucepan and boil till it is thick.
Remove the grilled tofu slices to a tray.
Pour the thick marinate over the slices.
Serve with a lime wedge and garnish with onion slices.
NOTE: If you do not have a grill, you can pan fry it.

My dear friends, thank you all very much for the concern you all have for me.
I am really indebted to you all.
I think we all can forget about me for some time and concentrate on our cooking.
I feel very bad that I am upsetting every one.
Cheers Kugan will come out of this.
Thanks, thanks, Kugan98
Madhu Sree, I am very very happy that the dishes have come out nicely for you.
Please try other dishes and give us the feed back.
Thanks, Kugan98
Suja, Rose, Aarthii, thanks for all your concern.
I am sure all your prayers will surely cure me.
Thanks, every one. Take care, Kugan98
Suvai, Kugan says:ty::ty::ty::ty::
You have taken so much trouble to cook up a dish for me.
Thanks again Suvai, I will surely try it out.
Thanks again Suvai, Take care, Kugan98
Friends, I met a cook in India, he gave me some tips.
I am posting them here. Thanks, Kugan98
SOME TIPS WHILE MAKING BIRYANI
Soak the biryani rice for only 15 minutes.
Only then your rice will look long and beautiful.
For rice cooker biryani the water rato is 1 to 1 ½
Always put the washed rice in the boiling water.
Not before the water boils. Do not stir it often.
Add a small piece of raw papaya while cooking mutton
for biryani. It takes less time to cook the mutton.
If making onion raitha for biryani, add little salt to the onions.
Keep aside for a minute, then squeeze and wash in water.
You will not have strong onion smell.
Small cubed bread slices fried in ghee, add more taste to the biryani.
Saute more onions in low flame in ghee while making biryani.
It gives a very nice taste and aroma.
When adding garlic and ginger, they should be the same amount.
Biryani would taste better if consumed after keeping for about 5 hours.
Oh Amazing stuff Kugan ka, you are truly divine when it comes to cooking :)
Many Many thanks, I will try it this week end, and let you know
Take care of your health !
Nice tips K :)
K, I just saw this post of yours.. So sorry to hear. It must be difficult for you. Anyway, good that it is only up to April. Like Dev said make sure that you get the per day requirement of calories. Take care K.Quote:

once done, add a tbsp or 2 of pottu kadalai powder and keep mixing. keep flame on low. Cook for 2-3 till the raw smell goes off and the chicken dries out. Add more oil if masala sticks to bottom. The masala should coat each piece of chicken well.
Take off flame and add lemon juice if u wish to.
Serve garnished with coriander leaves.
Thanks Dev, for the chicken recipe.
I too owe a chicken pepper fry recipe to Rose75.
I will post soon.
Dev, do you remember the pasta episodes we had.
My friend sent me a Kerala pasta recipe.
She is bugging me why I have not posted it yet.
I will post soon. Thanks and take care. Kugan98
