For the pasta:

  • 60 g Glass noodles, Vernicelli type
  • 1 Egg, size M
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 1 Pri Black pepper, fresh from the mill
  • 1 tsp (heaped) Tapioca flour
  • 1 tbsp Rice Wine, (Arak Masak)

For the vegetables:

  • 4 small Onions, red
  • 3 medium-sized Cloves of garlic, fresh
  • 1 Kai Lan, (Chinese broccoli)
  • 40 g Carrot

For the broth:

  • 400 g Coconut water
  • 8 g Chicken broth, Kraft bouillon
  • 0,5 tsp Tabasco
  • Aji-No-Moto, (high-purity glutamate, see note)
  • Black pepper, fresh from the mill

Also:

  • 3 tbsp Sunflower oil

Instructions
 

  • Soak the glass noodles in plenty of warm water for 5 minutes, strain and cut to a maximum of 8 cm with scissors. Whisk the egg with the rest of the ingredients and fry with 1 tbsp of the oil to form a pancake, allow to cool, roll up and cut the roll diagonally into pasta approx. 3 mm wide.
  • For the vegetables, cap the onions and the garlic cloves at both ends, peel them and cut them roughly into pieces. Wash the fresh kailan, separate the leaves from the stem. Cut off the woody stem above the first leaf and discard. Separate the thin petioles from the leaves along the midrib, cutting the leaves in half lengthways. Cut the leaf stalks and the stem crosswise into thin rolls.
  • Cut the leaves into small pieces. Keep leaves and stalk rolls ready separately. Freeze unused goods. Measure and defrost frozen goods. In the meantime, wash the carrot, cap at both ends, peel, slice diagonally into approx. 3 mm thick slices and cut large slices in half crosswise.
  • Mix the ingredients for the broth and season with aji-no-moto and pepper. Heat the remaining oil in a wok. Add the onions and garlic cloves and stir-fry until the onions are translucent. Add the stalk rolls from Kai Lan and the carrot slices and stir-fry for 1 minute. Add the leaves and stir-fry until they wilt. Deglaze with the broth, add the pasta and let it boil briefly.
  • Spread on the serving cups, serve warm as a starter and enjoy.

Annotation:

  • Aji-No-Moto is mainly made from tomatoes. If you are allergic to tomatoes, replace it with salt.
