Healthy food

After the gourmet delights of fishfinger pie, we opted for something a little healthier last night: Chinese noodle salad. This is a recipe I've made many times before, but it is just SO good. Regardless of the time of year, the vegetables you have to hand, or the protein that tops it, it brings a burst of color to the table and fresh crunchiness to the palate.



This time, I used deep-fried tofu, coated in a batter of egg white and cornstarch. Finger-lickin' good!



We sat on the floor in front of the TV, taking it in turns to dig into the bowl, while watching Top Gear's American Special, the funniest (and yet scariest) hour of TV so far this year. And it will take a lot to beat. Watch the repeat on Wednesday night at 8 (CET) on BBC 2. You won't regret it.
