Why This Recipe Works
This salad redefines what tofu can be, using silky, homemade chickpea tofu instead of soy. It is a refreshing afternoon snack that perfectly balances savory oils with tart tamarind.
Instructions
1
Coat a portion of the sliced onions in lime juice and set them aside to macerate.
2
Fry the remaining onions in oil until golden brown and crisp, then let the oil cool to room temperature.
3
Gently combine the sliced tofu with the garlic, chiles, flour, and tamarind dressing.
4
Pour the fried onions and their oil into the tofu mixture, add the lime-soaked onions and cilantro, and mix gently with a spoon to avoid breaking the delicate tofu.
