New year start with some good weather for East coast, then big storm dumping 2 feet of snow in one day. When there is storm in winter means no going out, come up with some new recipie to try as i cook and watch snow falling from my kitchen. I like to make tofu sandwich, stir fry it, one time I made tofu fritters taste like cheese pakora. This is my family’s favorite to make it with lot of onions and good masala taste with fennel seed powder. You need to microwave tofu for 2 minutes to take the raw smell out. Cabbage adds a sweeter taste to it, fennel seed powder enhance the flavor over all. You can make a nice toasted sandwich with this, or can have it over brown rice, quinoa or boiled millet.
