Tofu Katsu (with Frozen Tofu!)

Just like Wagamama’s but better! Freezing and thawing gives the tofu a meaty texture and helps it soak up the flavour of any marinade (or in this case vegan chicken stock), making it taste even more amazing.

Drain the tofu, pop it in a container and freeze it. Fully defrost it, drain off any liquid and re-freeze. Defrost it one last time and once fully defrosted it, pop it in a tofu press for 30 minutes to remove the excess water.

Notes

The tofu will need to be frozen and defrosted (at least once, but twice will give better results) before cooking. The best thing to do is freeze the tofu overnight and then set yourself a reminder to get it out in the morning to defrost ready for cooking later that day. This recipe calls for firm tofu or medium firm tofu, as they contain more water content. It will work with extra-firm tofu but the result will be better with firm or medium firm.
