Review summary
Updated on Feb 2026- Flavour: The coconut dressing and Malaysian tofu were praised for elevating simple ingredients, though some found the flavour combination unusual.
- Ease of prep: Quick and easy to prepare, but take care when cooking the ginger paste as it may splatter in the pan.
- Suggestions: Try adding fresh garlic and grated ginger to boost the sauce flavour. Consider reducing cabbage for those with sensitive digestion.
- Portions: Some found the meal light; adding extra carbs or increasing the tofu portion could make it more filling.
