How to make martabak know not too much oil
Here is a way to make martabak tofu does not absorb excess oil.
1. Make sure the contents are not too wet
Tofu martabak filling generally consists of a mixture of eggs and crushed tofu. However, if the filling is too wet, spring rolls will become soft, difficult to crunchy, and easier to absorb oil.
Therefore, make sure the ratio between eggs and tofu is balanced. Also avoid adding water to the dough so as not to make it more runny.
2. The skin is not too thin
Lumpia skin that is too thin can absorb more oil, especially if in direct contact with wet filling.
We recommend that you use two layers of spring rolls to make it stronger and not easily torn. In addition, when rolling the contents, make sure the folds are tightly closed so that the martabak is not easy to leak when fried.
