    To make the salad, bring a pan of water to the boil. Add the eggs and cook for 6-7 minutes, until soft-boiled. Carefully remove from the boiling water using a slotted spoon. Cool under cold, running water, then peel the eggs and set aside.

    Meanwhile, heat another pan with boiling, salted water and cook the potatoes until tender (about 10 minutes). Drain and leave to cool.

    Bring another saucepan of water to the boil and cook the beans for 2-3 minutes, or until just cooked and tender. Drain and cool in a bowl of ice cold water.

    Heat the sesame oil in a frying pan and add the tofu. Fry until lightly crisp and then remove from the pan to drain on kitchen paper. Leave to cool.

  5. 5

    To make the sauce, combine all the ingredients in a pan. Place over a low-medium heat and stir to combine, then remove from the heat.

    To assemble the salad, first put the lettuce in a bowl, then the potatoes, beans, cucumber, eggs, tofu and beansprouts and serve with the sauce poured over. Garnish with crispy onions, coriander, crushed prawn crackers and a bowl of red chilli sambal.
