Pasta enough for two people
Tofu balls: makes around 10 - 12 balls
- 1/2 cup of firm tofu crumbled by hand (approx half a package)
- 1/4 cup of flour
- 1/2 tbsp of tahini
- 1 tbsp of tamari
- 1/4 cup of sun dried tomatoes
- 1/4 cup of green onion (optional)
- 1/4 tsp of garlic (optional)
- 1 very small onion minced
- 1/4 tsp of mustard
- black pepper
- 1/4 cup of flour for coating
- 2 tbsp oil for frying
In a large bown, mix together the tofu, 1/4 cup of flour, tahini, tamari, sun dried tomatoes, green onion, garlic, onion, mustard, & pepper with hands. Form balls with approx 1/2 tbsp of the mixture into a ball, and coat with flour until all tofu mixture is used.
Set them aside, and heat or prepare homemade pasta sauce.
In a frying pan on medium heat fry tofu balls in oil until browned all over. Once the sauce is hot, you can put them into the sauce. Let them sit in there for 5 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Serve over pasta and with Pinot Grigio.
