Why This Recipe Works

This room-temperature noodle dish is a festival of textures, featuring everything from soft potatoes to crunchy wonton strips. It is the ultimate vegetarian party dish.


Instructions

1

Boil the potatoes until tender, about 15 minutes, then drain. In a wok, fry the onions until crisp and golden, then repeat the process with the sliced garlic, tofu cubes, and wonton strips until everything is crunchy. Reserve 1 tablespoon of the frying oil.

2

Cook the wheat noodles in boiling water for about 4 minutes until tender, then rinse under cool water and drain well. For the sauce, soak the tamarind in hot water, strain it, and mix with sriracha, ginger, and sugar.

3

In a large bowl, combine the noodles, potatoes, cucumber, cabbage, and cilantro. Drizzle with the reserved onion oil and the tamarind sauce.

4

Fold in the fried onions, garlic, tofu, and wontons gently so they stay crisp, and serve the whole salad at room temperature.
