What do you think? It's easy, simple cooking with a quick and tasty result. I like my new way on how to fry tempeh and tofu. This new technic definitely saved lots of my time in the kitchen. Furthermore, I do not use mortal and pestle anymore to grind the fry tempeh & tofu season. I forgot when the last time I use mortar and pestle; I reckon it has been a few years since the last time I used to grind my season. Nowadays, I say goodbye to mortar and pestle!😁
