* Please use a non stick pan for this recipe
* Always use firm/extra firm tofu for this recipe. If the tofu that you buy comes dipped in water, please discard that water, carefully rinse the tofu under cold tap water, wrap it with a 2 or 3 thick paper towels. Then put it on a colander with a weight on top for about half an hour to an hour.
* You can marinate the tofu for an hour to overnight if you have time on hand.
* You can even use a teaspoon of ginger garlic paste.
* Fry the tofu in a single layer and fry them in batches if your pan is small
* Do not slice tofu too thin
* Apply masala with your fingers
* Do not fry on very high heat as that will burn the masala. At the same time frying it for a long time will destroy all the flavors. As soon as they turn little golden brown take them off heat.
* Tastes best the day it is made
