Tofu Fritters

This is a basic recipe for baked tofu. The trick is to make a very spicy coating from breadcrumbs,thyme, vegetable soup powder and garlic powder (you can of course use any other herbs and spices that take your fancy!).

1 pack of tofu (250g)
2 eggs
breadcrumbs, vegetable soup powder, thyme, garlic powder, flour, oil

Put three plates in a row: the first one with some flour, the second with the two eggs (beaten vigorously). In the third plate mix breadcrumbs, instant vegetable soup powder, thyme and garlic. This mixture should be quite spicy, as it is the only flavour used in this recipe to "spice up" the quite bland tofu.
Cut the tofu into small, bite-sized pieces. Roll each piece first in the flour, then in the egg and finally coat it with the breadcrumb mix.
Bake the pieces in a medium hot pan with some oil until golden brown, crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside.
