I know it sounds kinda funny

Features:
    Cuisine:

    I know it sounds kinda funny, but this is a spicy Thai appetizer, traditionally made with ground chicken. The tofu works well because it readily absorbs the seasonings. Serve with lime wedges for extra zip. Use soy sauce instead of fish sauce to make this recipe vegan. Adapted from Cooking Light magazine.
