Cooking Time: 
5-7 min
Ingredients: 

1 (14-ounce) container extra firm tofu
water
2 cups seasoned bread crumbs
oil for frying

Directions: 

1. Drain and press tofu. Cut tofu into 16 rectangular pieces. (I usually cut it in half lengthwise and then cut both halves into eight rectangles, mimicking a chicken finger.)
2. Moisten each piece of tofu with a SMALL amount of water and roll in breadcrumbs. You want the crumbs to stick to the tofu.
3. Drop into hot oil for 5 to 7 minutes, or until golden brown. Drain. We serve this with homemade fries and mustard. All the kids LOVE it.
