½ + ½ package (3 ounces) Kikkoman® Kara-Áge
Vegetable oil

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon finely chopped cilantro

- Stir together ingredients for dipping sauce. Set aside.

- Heat ½-inch of oil in a deep frying pan to 350ºF. Once oil is hot, coat tofu in remaining Kara-Áge mix and place into hot oil, leaving space in between each piece. Fry for 1-2 minutes on each side until crisp and golden brown.
- Transfer to a paper towel lined plate to soak up excess oil.
- Serve tofu warm with lime wedges and dipping sauce.
