This Chinese-style sizzler builds a complete meal from noodles, momos, grilled tofu, kimchi and crisp vegetables. The platter is playful and varied, so every bite tastes a little different while still feeling like one coherent dish.

Serves: 4 people

Preparation time: 60 min

Ingredients

  • Hakka noodles – 200 g
  • Vegetarian momos – 12
  • Firm tofu – 250 g
  • Kimchi – 1 cup
  • Green beans – 200 g
  • Cabbage – 1 cup
  • Carrot – 1
  • Soy sauce – 1 tbsp
  • Chilli sauce – 1 tbsp
  • Sesame seeds – 1 tbsp
  • Garlic – 4 cloves
  • Ginger – 1 tsp
  • Spring onion – 2
  • Oil – as needed
  • Salt – to taste

Method

step 1
Cook or steam the momos first and keep them warm. It helps to prepare the platter in separate components, because that gives you control and prevents the noodles from overcooking while you wait.
step 2
Press the tofu dry, season it with soy sauce, garlic and a little chilli sauce, then grill or pan-sear until golden. Finish with sesame seeds for extra nuttiness and texture.
step 3
Cook the noodles until just done and toss them with cabbage, carrot, beans, ginger and spring onion in a hot wok. Stir-frying them quickly keeps the vegetables crisp and the noodles glossy rather than greasy.
step 4
Place the hot noodles on a sizzling platter, arrange the momos, tofu, kimchi and extra vegetables around them, then spoon over a little chilli-garlic dressing or serve it on the side.
step 5
Take the platter to the table immediately. A varied sizzler like this is at its best when each element stays distinct but warm, vibrant and freshly cooked.
