Crispy Satay Tofu

This is a very light and refreshing summer appetizer. It was sooooo delicious. Secretly tell you, I gobble down 4 pieces of this at one go. I felt a little regret that I made so little. So yummy, in the future I should make double the portion. Try it and you will know. No regrets.
