Gluten free: Use rice noodles instead of udon; use gluten-free satay sauce; use tamari instead of soy sauce. Use a combination of green and red cabbage. Note

Pressing tofu between paper towels removes excess moisture; this prevents it going soggy when cooked and gives an extra-crisp coating. Buy piri piri seasoning in the spice aisle of supermarkets; adjust quantity according to taste. Note

Marinated firm tofu is available in the chilled section of most supermarkets. For a variation, swap tofu for marinated tempeh. Note

Fried shallots are available from Asian food stores and some supermarkets. For non-vegetarians, you can add prawns or chopped chicken and use fish sauce in place of soy sauce, if preferred. Note
