Noodles with Chilled Tomato Broth

This vibrant vegetarian dish offers a sophisticated take on chilled summer dining. The recipe features a delicate tomato broth, naturally sweetened by the ripest fruit and sharpened with rice vinegar, providing a light yet deeply savoury base for the noodles. By blending the tomatoes slowly and straining them carefully, you achieve a clear, refreshing liquid that perfectly complements the soft texture of thin somen noodles and the crunch of fresh Persian cucumbers.

Ideal for a warm evening or a light weekend lunch, this cooling broth-based meal is both nourishing and easy to prepare. The addition of thin, shredded egg crepes adds a beautiful golden colour and a boost of protein, making it a complete and balanced vegetarian bowl. Feel free to prepare the tomato broth up to two days in advance to allow the flavours to develop further before serving with a touch of spicy chilli paste.

Ingredients for Noodles with Chilled Tomato Broth

  • 675g very ripe red tomatoes, chopped

  • 1 small garlic clove, smashed

  • 3 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar

  • 1 cucharada de azúcar

  • 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more

  • 275g thin noodles (preferably somen)

  • 5 large eggs, beaten to blend

  • 1/2 cucharadas de mantequilla sin sal

  • 2 medium Persian cucumbers, halved, thinly sliced on a diagonal

  • 3 cebollas de primavera, finamente picadas

  • 1/2 taza de hojas de cilantro con tallos tiernos

  • Pasta de chile picante (como sambal oelek

  • para servir)

Blend tomatoes, garlic, vinegar, sugar, 1 tablespoon salt, and 475ml water in a blender on low speed until tomato pieces are no larger than 1/4" (it’s important to blend on low; otherwise, the tomato broth will foam up). Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a large measuring cup, pressing on solids with a spoon to extract as much liquid as possible (you should have about 950ml broth). Chill until ready to use.

Meanwhile, cook noodles in a large pot of boiling salted water according to package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water. Cover with damp paper towels; set aside.

Season beaten eggs with remaining 1/4 teaspoons salt. Melt butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add half of beaten eggs and swirl around skillet to make a thin egg crepe. Cook undisturbed until completely set, about 2 minutes. Slide egg crepe onto a cutting board. Repeat with remaining egg mixture, placing second egg crepe right on top of the first one. When cool enough to handle, tightly roll up eggs. Thinly slice crosswise to create long shreds.

Divide noodles among bowls. Pour tomato broth over, holding back any foam. Arrange shredded eggs, cucumbers, spring onions, and coriander in bowls. Serve with hot chilli paste alongside.

Do Ahead: Tomato broth can be made 2 days ahead. Transfer to an airtight container and chill.
