Fried Tofu

Tofu is a great source of calcium. I made it the other day, in hurry, after a long and busy day.I still had some tofu in the fridge and a lot of parsley. It turned out to be delicious, quick and simple!
You might know that there are different types of tofu, and for this one I used a very firm tofu which is suitable for frying. Don't use "Silk tofu" as this will get you nowhere- silk tofu is suitable for soups and steaming.
I haven't made a photo yet- as I didn't know it would turn out good. The other day I did fry some tofu, but with a different variety- and the same problem-I didn't know whether it would be any good.
But I am determined to make a photo the next time .
