Malaysian tofu is our house take on a Southeast Asian classic. Firm tofu is cut into thick cubes, fried until the edges turn golden and crisp, then folded through a fragrant sauce built on garlic, onion, sweet peppers and a gentle curry-and-chilli base. The result is a plate that stays crunchy on the outside while the inside stays soft and custardy.
At Szechuan Kitchen we cook it to order in a hot wok, which is why the sauce clings to every cube instead of pooling at the bottom of the container. It travels well, so it is just as good picked up on Broadway Avenue on the way home to Nutana or Varsity View as it is eaten at our table.
Why Saskatoon Keeps Ordering It
Long-time guests describe Malaysian tofu as the reason they first found us, and very little about it has changed in the years since.
What guests tell us
- A genuinely meat-free main that still delivers big, savoury flavour
- Mild enough for children, with extra chilli available on request
- Generous portions that share easily between two people
- A recipe regulars have been ordering since around 2007
Good to pair with
- Steamed rice, to catch every bit of the sauce
- Special fried rice for a heartier family meal
- A bowl of wonton soup to start
- Crisp vegetable spring rolls for the table
