Preparation
Prep the tofu first and set it aside on a paper towel to further dry while you prep the other ingredients.
Pour and vegetable oil in wok and tilt it around to spread the oil, then place the pan on medium high heat. Preheat the wok thoroughly and ensure that the oil is well distributed. The wok needs to be hot enough for the tofu not to stick but not so hot that it burns.
Carefully and evenly lay tofu in wok and fry for two minutes until tofu edges get golden brown. Flip and toss tofu until all sides are crispy.
Next add the shallot, ginger and Indonesian Ayam. Gently toss until fragrant for 1 minute. Pour in the coconut milk, sugar and soy sauce. Simmer for another minute until the sauce thickens. Transfer to a serving dish and finish with Thai basil, peanuts and a squeeze of lime juice.
