Tips:
Deep-fried tofu is a crucial step in this dish. You can use flour instead of sweet potato starch to coat the tofu. Corn starch must not be used. The corn starch will not be coated firmly. The meringue on the surface of the tofu is easy to fall off during the frying process, and the taste will be reduced. Greatly discounted.
