Has anyone used an air fryer for crunchy fried tofu?

I find the pan fried tofu is too greasy and baking the tofu& flipping it several times is unsatisfactory.

Thanks for any input

Nice of you to ask

12. Yum.

I've asked around & people who like them, don't just like them, they LOVE them. Like Ferrets, on this thread.

Can't wait to hear your verdict.

5. Step one for spongy-fried tofu

Interesting idea, the air fryer.

I assume you are all starting with firm tofu that has been frozen, thawed, pressed and drained.

The tofu's thawed-frozen texture is changed; it marinates well.

I have been happy with my cast iron skillet and light oil and good heat.

8. Looks fantastic!

I had talked myself out of an air fryer, but I may have to rethink it.
