Fried Tofu Cubes with Sesame Seeds is a savory dish inspired by East Asian cuisine, offering a delightful balance of texture and flavor. This dish features bite-sized tofu cubes, lightly coated and fried to achieve a crisp outer layer while retaining a tender, creamy interior. They're then sprinkled with a generous helping of roasted sesame seeds, which add nuttiness and crunch. As tofu is derived from soybeans, it serves as an excellent source of plant-based protein, low in saturated fat and cholesterol-free, making it a heart-healthy option. Sesame seeds contribute healthy fats, antioxidants, and essential minerals like calcium and magnesium. However, frying the tofu increases calorie content and can introduce saturated fats depending on the oil used. To make the dish lighter, consider air frying or pan-searing instead. This versatile recipe pairs beautifully with rice, salads, or stir-fried vegetables for a balanced meal.
