Air Fryer Tofu Fritters (Perkedel Tahu)

Hi Guys!

Hope this finds you well. Today my heart is heavy. Whenever I made a plan to see friends, something always came up. So this morning I decided to just show up to the local college where I used to work at, to visit friends that I had not seen for awhile now. To my surprise, a friend passed away just 2 weeks ago, other friends are battling cancer still, some friends moved up, happy for them, congrats, other friends moved away.

I feel so darn guilty. I was so busy with work that I had not seen them for at least a year long and whenever I texted, everything seemed fine. I guess some friends just love you too much to share their burden. Share away, friends. Keep me in the loop, always ❤️

Moving on from this topic. I was craving Perkedel Tahu, Indonesian tofu fritters. Since I have this new air fryer, thought I'd try and see if I could make it using the air fryer 😊

Aww sorry to hear about your friends :<

Hope the cooking helped a bit.

Hmmmm the food looks yummy 🤤.

Anyways I'm sorry to hear about your friend and praying for your friend who is fighting in cancer.🙏

Food is always yummy, esp when we dont have to make ourselves 😁 restaurants and I are best friends 😉

Thank you!

Even I felt like eating those chicken fritters, although I have never tasted tofu, the recipe looks appetizing.

I don't know why after we change jobs or after retirement nothing is the same, we distance ourselves from our friends and I think it's not ideal. It is important to maintain ties of friendship. Greetings @thekitchenfairy

I may have a hard time in finding spare time to see face to face, but i do stay in touch via text. If i have the time to see them, they dont have the time to see me. Vice versa. It happens. Everyone's busy with life 😊
