Note

This recipe combines elements of a fried tofu sauce concept with an egg noodle omelette preparation. Ensure your wok is very hot before adding the egg to ensure it spreads thinly and cooks quickly.

For best results, use fresh coriander leaves for garnish to add a bright, herbal note that cuts through the richness of the eggs and soy sauce.

If you prefer a spicier dish, add sliced chili peppers to the vegetable stir-fry step.

Store any leftover vegetable mixture in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and reheat gently before using in a new batch of omelettes.
