- 400g potatoes, scrubbed and cut into quarters, so they are all roughly the same size
- 3 eggs
- 250g ginger and honey marinated tofu, thinly sliced
- ½ telegraph cucumber
- 1 capsicum
- 2 handfuls mung bean sprouts
SATAY SAUCE
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- ½ red onion, finely diced
- 1 stalk lemongrass, tough outer layer removed and thinly sliced
- Pinch chilli flakes
- 1–2 tablespoons soy sauce

-
a medium pot of salted water to the boil. Preheat BBQ hot plate to medium (if using).
-
Cook potatoes in pot of boiling water for 8 minutes, then use spoon to gently add whole eggs and simmer a further 5–7 minutes. Drain and run under the cold tap to cool then leave to drain well.
-
While potatoes and eggs cook, make the satay sauce. Heat a drizzle of oil in a small pot on medium heat. Cook garlic, onion, lemongrass and chilli flakes for about 2 minutes, until fragrant. Add all remaining satay sauce ingredients and simmer for 2–3 minutes, until thickened.
-
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large fry-pan on high heat. Fry tofu for about 1 minute each side, until golden. Remove from pan and set aside.
-
Thinly slice cucumber and remove core and seeds from capsicum and thinly slice. Toss in a large bowl, along with mung bean sprouts. Peel eggs, cut in half and set aside.
-
Spoon salad vegetables and potatoes onto plates and top with a few slices of tofu and egg halves. Drizzle over satay sauce. Sprinkle with peanuts, herbs and chilli (if using).
