* Serves two.
== Ingredients ==
* 2 tbsp groundnut oil
* ½ onion, diced
* 220 g firm tofu, cut into 1cm strips
* 100 g french beans, trimmed and cut in half at an angle
* 100 g choi sum (or pak choi), cut into chunks (both leaves and stalks)
* 300 g fresh egg noodles
* 1½ tsp ground coriander
* 1 tsp ground cumin
* 2 tsp sambal oelek (or other savoury chilli paste), plus extra to serve
* 2 tsp thick soy sauce
* 2 tsp light soy sauce
* 1 tbsp water
* 50 g bean sprouts
* 1 handful shredded iceberg lettuce
* 1 tbsp crisp-fried shallots (from south-east Asian food shops; or use dried onion flakes)
* lemon wedges, to serve
== Directions ==
# Set a wok or a large pan over a high heat.
# Once hot, add the oil and then the onion, and cook for about a minute, to soften a bit.
# Add the tofu and french beans, and cook for two to three minutes, so the tofu takes on a bit of colour.
# Stir gently as you cook, trying not to break up the tofu.
# Next, add the choi sum.
# When it wilts, add the noodles and carefully spread them in the wok using tongs or large chopsticks.
# You want the noodles to get a lot of heat, almost to fry.
# Mixing gently, cook the noodles for about two minutes.
# Now add the spices, sambal oelek, soy sauces, water and beansprouts, and toss carefully.
# Cook for about a minute, or until the noodles are semi-soft.
# When done, top with lettuce, transfer to two serving bowls and sprinkle with some crisp shallots.
# Serve at once, with lemon wedges and a small bowl of extra sambal oelek on the side.
