Cooking time: 30 minutes

Soup

Ingredients (1 servings)
1 Garlic clove
ca. 1 cm Ginger
1 Spring onion (the white part)
100 g Pak choi, Chinese cabbage or pointed cabbage
1 teaspoon(s) (Chili) oil
1 teaspoon(s) Light miso paste
1 teaspoon(s) White wine vinegar or rice vinegar
1 teaspoon(s) Agave syrup or maple syrup
1 teaspoon(s) Chili sauce (to taste)
75 g Lasagne sheets

Tofu "filling

Ingredients (1 servings)
75 g Smoked tofu
1 Spring onion (the green part)
1 teaspoon(s) Soy sauce
1 teaspoon(s) Hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon(s) Flour
1/2 teaspoon(s) Garlic powder
Oil for frying

To serve (as desired)

Ingredients (1 servings)
1/2 Lime
1 handful Fresh coriander
  • First, peel the garlic and ginger and finely chop them in the same way as the spring onion. The pak choi is cleaned and cut into strips. Heat the (chili) oil in a pan and fry the ginger, garlic and the white part of the spring onion in it for a few minutes.
  • Next, add the pak choi and fry it until it has become noticeably "less". Now you can stir in 300 ml water, miso paste, vinegar, agave syrup and chili sauce and simmer the soup over a medium heat.
  • In the meantime, break the lasagna sheets into large pieces (sorry to all Italians who are about to have a heart attack). Add them to the soup and simmer for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Now we come to the tofu "filling", which is disguised as tofu balls. Crumble the smoked tofu into a bowl and mix with the remaining ingredients to form a mixture.
  • Shape them into teaspoon-sized balls and fry them in a pan in a little oil for 3-4 minutes on each side.
  • Now you can serve the soup with the balls in a bowl and garnish with a dash of lime juice and fresh coriander if you like.

Tip:

Please do NOT put the balls in the stock to cook instead of frying them. This ends in a crumbly disaster.
