Classic Surinamese Roasted Tofu Fritters

Assemble the ingredients: tofu, onion, yogurt, tomato, flour, chili, cumin.

Warm oil in a heavy pot. Add the tofu and cook until roasted.

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Surinamese flavors.

Add the remaining ingredients and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until tender.

Taste and adjust seasoning; the flavor should deepen as it cooks.

Plate and serve with traditional Surinamese accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
