Step 1

Remove tofu from package and press to remove excess moisture (about 10 minutes). Slice the tofu about 1 cm (0.4 inch) in thickness.

Step 2

Add soy sauce, mayonnaise, sugar and pepper to a Tupperware and whisk to combine. Add the tofu and coat with the sauce. Cover and marinate for at least 30 minutes or overnight in the refrigerator.

Step 3

Add the cake flour, water, aonori and salt to a bowl and whisk until smooth.

Step 4

Heat a pan over medium to medium high heat and add enough oil to coat the pan. Dip the pieces of tofu into the mixture and cook each side until crispy and golden brown (about 1 1/2 - 2 minutes on each side).

Step 5

Serve and enjoy!
