You can use this tofu fry to make vegetarian tacos.Heat soft corn tortillas according to the direction.You can use cruncy tortillas too. Fill the tortillas with fried tofu,guacamole,and lettuce.
Guacamole :-2 fresh avocados cut into small pieces. 1 diced tomato.1/2 diced onion. salt to taste. 1 tsp lime juice. 1tsp Balsamic vinegar. Freshly chopped cilantro. In medium size bowl mash together avocados,salt, lime juice, balsamic vinegar. Mix in tomato, onion and cilantro.

Tip:-If you are allergic to peanut butter you can use brown sugar , regular sugar or 1 teaspoon of honey.
For more healthy version you can first bake the tofu on lightly greased baking pan in 400F for 10-15 minutes , by occasionally changing the side. You can use olive oil also, but in asian cooking peanut oil/sesame oil brings more flavor.
