Elaboració
Pas a pas
- 1
Begin by preparing the tofu. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Uns 2 min
Nota de cuina: Ensure your tofu is well-pressed to achieve a crispy texture.

Add the cubed tofu to the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy on all sides, about 8-10 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside on paper towels to drain excess oil.
Uns 10 min
Nota de cuina: Don't overcrowd the pan; fry the tofu in batches if necessary.

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Blanch the green beans for 2-3 minutes until tender-crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon and immediately plunge into an ice bath to stop cooking and retain color.

Heat the sauce over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens and is smooth. Adjust consistency with more water if needed, and taste to adjust seasonings.

To assemble the Gado Gado, arrange the fried tofu, blanched green beans, blanched cabbage, bean sprouts, sliced potato, and sliced cucumber on a large platter or individual plates.
