• 2 teaspoons sugar

• 1/4 cup coarsely chopped coriander plus long, pretty sprigs for garnish

• One 8- to 275g package Chinese wide-cut egg noodles

• 1 carton firm tofu, drained and cut into large cubes

• 2 1/2 tablespoons roasted peanut oil

• 1 heaping tablespoon chopped ginger

• 1 heaping tablespoon chopped garlic

• 1 jalapeño chilli, seeded and diced

• 2 chunks baked tofu, thinly sliced

• 1 onion, thinly sliced

• 6 shiitake mushrooms, stems discarded, thinly sliced

• 1 large broccoli, the head cut into florets, the stem peeled and sliced

• 1 red or yellow pepper, cut into narrow strips, then halved

• 2 carrots, peeled and thinly sliced

• Sale

• 110g snow peas, trimmed

• 1 bunch spring onions, including the firm greens, cut into 1-inch lengths

1. Mix the sauce ingredients together and set aside.

2. Bring a pot of water to boil for the noodles and tofu. Reduce it to a simmer, add the cubed tofu and simmer gently for 4 minutes. Lift out the tofu with a strainer and set aside. Return the water to a boil, add the noodles and cook until tender-firm, following the package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water. Toss with 1 tablespoon of the oil and set aside.

3. Set a wok or skillet over high heat. Add the remaining oil, swirl it around. When hot, add the ginger, garlic, chilli, and baked tofu. Stir-fry around. When hot, add the ginger, garlic, chilli, and baked tofu. Stir-fry for 1 minute, then add onion, mushrooms, broccoli, pepper, and carrots. Season with a few pinches of salt and stir-fry, rapidly tossing the vegetables in their pan, for 3 minutes.

4. Now add the snow peas, spring onions, and boiled tofu. Stir-fry for 1 minute more, then add the noodles and the sauce. Reduce the heat, toss so that everything is evenly mingled, then cover and cook until the noodles are heated through, a matter of just a few minutes. Turn onto a large platter and garnish with sprigs of coriander.
