RE: 👨🍳 How To Make Perfect Fried Tofu Every Time 🍢 & Other Things You Didn't Need To Know 🤔
They don't change the tofu water? Oh no . Here it's treated like a pet.. a lot pampering. Usually if the tofu are made fresh, it's gone before the afternoon in Miri. Qhahaha.. tofu is something that is eaten almost every day here. There is one way to make a really crunchy tofu ball. Mush the whole tofu and then mix it with flour batter. Then deep fry it. It would be irresistible... 😉😉 Ahhaha

Here only ancestral Chinese-Khmer eat tofu, and almost always mix it with pork. Because they are a minority, you don't see it very often in menus or in markets. Of course the tourism industry and restaurants catering to them now commonly have tofu on the menu, but these places are often overpriced.
The way you mention frying tofu with flour, my wife does that sometimes, and I'm almost certain she got this idea from Chinese-Khmer cook. There is no Khmer word for stir-fry, instead we use a Chinese loanword here, so I think it's safe to say nobody in Cambodia was stir-frying until the Chinese came centuries ago and improved the cuisine a bit 😁.
