Tofu Sauteed - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 cakes firm tofu (approximately 4 oz. each)
garlic salt or onion salt
1 egg, beaten
2 oz. Cheddar cheese or other hard cheese
sesame seed or bread crumbs

Preparation

Remove the tofu from water.
Wrap the tofu in paper towels for at least 20 minutes to remove as much moisture as possible.
Wrap the tofu in fresh paper towels; press between the palms of your hands to remove any remaining water.
Sprinkle each side of the tofu cake with minced garlic or onion salt.
With a small, sharp knife, slit one side of each tofu cake to create a pocket. Sprinkle the pocket with a little flour and insert approximately 1 ounce of cheese in each tofu cake.
Sprinkle the outside of each tofu cake with flour.
Beat the egg in a medium size bowl.
Add the sesame seed or bread crumbs.
Dip each tofu cake into the egg batter; fry in a small amount of oil until brown on each side. Serve the tofu with a sauce of one part soy sauce and one part mayonnaise (or mayonnaise and ketchup).
