Chinese Feast - Der Kern by Miele

All the elements that make up this Chinese feast have been steam cooked in the Miele Steam Oven for professional results. The choy sum greens are vibrant and tender whilst the tofu is soft and silky thanks to the precise temperatures and even bursts of steam from inside the oven cavity

Place the aubergines on a perforated steam container and cook in the Miele Steam Oven on 100°c for 10 minutes. When ready, transfer into a serving bowl and add the vinegar, garlic and ginger. Heat the oil up in a small saucepan and pour over the aubergines. Garnish with some spring onions.
For the tofu, place the block on a solid container and cook on 100°c for 6 minutes. In the meantime, heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat and cook the shallots until golden and crispy. Transfer the tofu into a serving platter and garnish with crispy shallots and coriander leaves.
