In this video, I show you how to make tahu goreng. Tahu goreng is a delicious salad of fried tofu (firm tofu), bean sprouts and cucumber drenched in a delicious sweet and sour, spicy and crunchy peanut sauce. This easy tahu goreng recipe is well worth making.

TAHU GORENG
Ingredients for the salad
4 squares firm tofu
200g bean sprouts
2 whole cucumbers

Ingredients for the sauce
95g palm sugar (gula melaka / gula jawa / gula aren /gula merah)
6g shrimp paste (belacan)
1 tsp sesame oil
1 clove garlic
2 red chillis
4 green chillis
130g peanuts
1 tsp dark soy sauce
60g tamarind pulp
½ cup hot water (for the tamarind pulp)
½ cup water
Cooking oil for frying

Method:
1) Pat tofu dry using kitchen towels.
2) Add oil to pan and fry the tofu until golden brown.
3) Cut the tofu into cubes and set aside.
4) Wash and clean the bean sprouts.
5) Blanch the bean sprouts in a pan of boiling water for a few seconds.
6) Remove from pan, drain and set aside.
7) Slice the cucumber into thin strips and set aside.
8) Prepare the sauce:
a. Roast the peanuts. Place them in a dry pan over the stove and cook, while stirring constantly.
b. Remove peanuts from the heat and allow to cool down.
c. Remove as much of the peanut skins as possible.
d. Place the cooked peanuts in the blender and blend to desired consistency.
e. Break up the tamarind pulp in a bowl. Pour in the hot water and let the pulp soak in the hot water for about 20 minutes.
f. Let the tamarind mixture cool and then strain it. Discard the pulp but keep the juice.
g. Roughly chop the palm sugar.
h. Roast the shrimp paste/belacan in a pan until fragrant.
i. Peel the garlic.
j. Roughly cut the red and green chillis into smaller chunks.
k. Blend the chilli, garlic, belacan and sesame oil. Blend until the mixture is well combined and forms a paste.
l. Transfer paste from the blender to a frying pan. Fry until fragrant.
m. One at a time, taking care to stir constantly, add the tamarind juice, dark soy sauce, water and peanuts.
n. Remove from the heat.
o. To serve, arrange a few pieces of the fried tofu on a plate. Sprinkle the blanched bean sprouts and cucumber strips on top of the tofu. Spoon as much peanut sauce as you want on top.
p. You may also like to garnish the plate with chopped peanuts and a drizzle of lime juice.
