Ingredients

1 block tofu (firm or extra firm, pressed)
1/2 cup Mo' Fish Fry
1/2 cup Flour
1 tsp Baking Powder
Nori Seaweed (sheets)
1 Lemon 
Sparkling Water(plain)
Vegetable Oil



  1. Drain and press the tofu with a paper towel. Try to get most of the water out.
  2. Slice the tofu into medium thick slices
  3. Place Nori Seaweed on tofu and squeeze lemon juice on top and allow to sit for 10 minutes (The seaweed gives the tofu a fishy taste and is like the skin on real fish)​.
  4. In a large bowl add the Mo' Fish Fry, flour, baking powder and sparkling water.
  5. Mix together with a fork or hand whisk. Whisk until you have a thick batter (You want the batter to be thick enough to stick to the tofu. If it's too thin add a little more of equal parts of Mo' Fish Fry and flour and whisk again)
  6. Set aside for 5 min.
  7. Heat oil in deep fryer.
  8. Keeping the Nori sheets on top put the tofu in the batter and cover carefully with a spoon.
  9. Using a spatula gently pick up battered tofu and gently drop into the oil and do the same with the rest of the tofu.
  10. Let it fry for 3 minutes then flip over & cook the other side for a minute or two.
  11. Place the fish on paper towel to absorb the excess oil.
  12. Serve immediately with a slice of lemon, fries and tarter sauce.

Mo' Got Game

2/27/2018

0 Comments

 
I am a hunting enthusiast and people always ask how do you cook wild game without the gamy taste.  The key is salt water and ice.  First you submerge raw meat in salty ice water for 5-24 hours.  The next step is to remove meat and rinse well, then season to your liking which I prefer Mo' Cajun Seafood seasoning, parsley and onions.  Bake at 325 degrees for 2.5 hours.  During the winter there is nothing like fresh deer and wild boar. I use this process for all wild game.  HAPPY HUNTING!
