Method

  1. Step 1

    Heat the oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, for 3 mins or until onion softens. Add the spring onion, ginger, chilli, if using, sugar, soy sauce, vinegar and oyster sauce. Cook, stirring, for 3 mins or until aromatic. Set aside for 10 mins to develop the flavours.

    Meanwhile, line a steamer with baking paper. Pat the tofu dry with paper towel. Place tofu in the steamer over a saucepan of simmering water and cook for 5 mins. Arrange pak choy in the steamer and cook for a further 5 mins or until the tofu is heated through and the pak choy wilts. Thinly slice the tofu.

  3. Step 3

    While the tofu is steaming, cook the noodles following packet directions. Drain.

  4. Step 4

    Divide the noodles among serving bowls. Top with the tofu and pak choy. Drizzle with the onion mixture. Sprinkle with coriander and extra spring onion to serve.
