Rice-Crusted Peanut Sauce Coconut Tofu

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Peanut sauce makes a nice marinade to grill tofu with, either storebought or homemade. I like 365 peanut sauce, a lot of my homemade attempts didn't go as well due to faulty blender. There's a Taste Spotting webpage that always showcases these mouth-watering fritters and I got the idea to make these from seeing a picture of these Thai banana fritters that were coated in rice then fried. I figured that would be delicious for both sweet and savory fritters, and why not tofu? You can make this sweet OR savory, or a little of both! To save on calories, oven-frying works. Prep/cook time does not account for initially drying out the tofu.
