Crispy Tofu A.K.A Tahu Kress ala kikok

This is one of my youngest brother most favouriteeeeee snack that I've ever made. It's made of tofu or tahu in Bahasa Indonesia. The ingredients are so easy to get and it's very easy to cook.

Ingredients:
Tofu (don't need to mention how much, it depends on u, how much tofu u want to cook)
Flour (much enough to cover the tofu)
corn starch (about 1/3 of the flour)
a pinch of salt
pepper
coriander (here's the magic spice)
baking powder (very little)
garlic (for marinate the tofu)
oil
seasoning for french fries (any flavor u like)

cut your tofu into dice shape, not too big but not too small either

note that after cutting the tofu into dices, don't forget to marinate them with some garlic and salt, so the tofu won't be too plain.

so here are the ingredients, it's so simple

as soon as you got your ingredients prepared, mix flour with corn starch. mix them well, then add a pinch of salt, pepper, coriander, and baking powder to the mix. When the flour's ready add the tofu into the mixed flour. Make sure all of your tofu are covered in flour.

don't forget to dry your tofu before mix them with the flour

 Heat the cooking oil in a frying pan, fry the tofu until golden brown. Don't get so hasty in doing this step, the tofu will take quite a long time to be cooked.

be careful, if there's any wet tofu it will popping out the hot oil,,, trust me it hurts T_T

when your tofu has become golden brown, it's done. Take out them and put it in an oil strainer. Take some times to strain the oil.

drain the oil,,, now we're ready for seasoning

soon after that you can put your tofu in a container with a lid. Just put them in there, add some seasoning powder u like, close the lid, then shake shake shake it baby, hahaha this is my youngest brother's favourite part, he likes to this himself hahaha,,,,

I'm so sorry for bad picture, I only took it with my blackberry 's camera, the tofu color actually was bright orange 

so now your tofu is ready, the seasoning flavour my brother chose was balado and roasted corn.. In this picture he mixed that two flavours, unfortunately u can't see the colors T^T

But I hope this recipe is useful for anyone wants to try to make it , bye bye :D

Simple Onion Rings by cici

Berawal dari 'ngidam' kepengen home made onion rings jadilah kikok browsing2 resepnya,, haha eh bukan ngidam lah,, lagi pengen aja ;) So, I found 2 recipes, one is using eggs in its batter, the other is not using any eggs in its batter. I chose the second one. So here it is,, resep onion rings sederhana....

Bahan-bahan:

1 bawang bombay sedang/besar
1 cup tepung terigu (all purpose flour)
1 mangkuk air es untuk merendam bawang
1 cup air es untuk adonan
1 sdt garam
1/2 sdt baking soda
1/2 sdt perenyah untuk makanan
1/2 pack bread crumbs
Minyak untuk menggoreng

Sediakan semua bahan2 yang dibutuhkan, pake bread crumbs atau nggak, itu optional kok, ga pake bread crumbs juga enak2 aja tuh,, :D tapi kikok bikin 2 versi, pake crumbs dan nggak pake :)

 Ketahuan dah kidalnya yang punya blog, pisaunya di sebelah kiri :p hehe, potong2 bawang bombay selebar kurang lebih 1 cm... pilih bawang bombay yang besar atau sedang

 Setelah dipotong2, buka lapisan2 bawang satu-persatu,,,,dan masukkan ke dalam wadah / mangkuk

 Setelah itu isi mangkuk dengan air es hingga seluruh permukaan bawang terendam, rendam dengan air es selama 20-30 menit, gunanya agar onion rings crispy,,, :D

Setelah itu, siapkan bahan untuk adonan. Masukkan 1 cup tepung terigu, 1 sdt garam, 1 sdt merica, 1/2 baking soda, 1/2 perenyah makanan ke dalam satu wadah. Aduk2 hingga merata.

Setelah itu tambahkan 1 cup air es ke dalam wadah. Aduk2 sampai adonan tercampur rata. Kenapa menggunakan air es? Menurut sumber yang kikok baca, air es bisa mengurangi peresapan minyak pada proses penggorengan ^^

Saat adonan telah siap, buang air es yang digunakan untuk merendam bawang tadi. Keringkan bawang dengan tisu dapur.

Buka 1 pack bread crumbs, tuangkan pada wadah datar. Lalu susun seperti pada gambar di atas, bawang bombay, adonan tepung, lalu bread crumbs.

Satu-persatu masukkan cincin2 bawang tadi ke dalam adonan dengan menggunakan garpu atau sumpit

Setelah dicelupkan ke adonan, cincin2 bawang tersebut kemudian diletakkan di atas wadah berisi bread crumbs dan dibolak-balik sampai seluruh bagian cincin tertutup bread crumbs

Goreng onion rings dengan minyak yang panas tapi hati-hati karena onion rings ini cepat sekali matangnya, tak perlu menunggu waktu lama. so hati2 ya friends, awas gosong! :p

Soal bread crumbs, kikok nyoba 2 versi onion rings. Yang satu pake bread crumbs yang satunya lagi ga pake. :D kelihatan di gambar, yg pake crumbs agak keriting2 gmn gitu permukaannya kalo yang ga pake crumbs permukaannya mulus hehehe :D oiya onion rings ini sesudah diangkat dari penggorengan harus ditiriskan dulu minyaknya, gunanya agar crispy nya awet D

Saat seluruh minyak di onion ring sudah ditiriskan, masukkan onion ring ke dalam wadah tapi sebelumnya lapisi wadah dengan tisu dapur guna menyerap sisa-sisa minyak yang masih ada...

Ini nih penampakan onion rings yang ga pake crumbs,,, :D it tastes so crispy loh, so yummy juga,,,, :D
