Snap the root end of the asparagus, boil, drain and cut in half.

Grill the flat tofu until both sides are browned. You can do this on the gas hob if you like. Cut into 1cm wide strips.

Mix together all the miso sesame dressing.

Put Step 1 and Step 2 into a large bowl and add sliced spring onions. Add half of Step 3 and mix well.

Arrange on a dish and cover with the remaining dressing. Cover with the grated ginger and sesame seeds.

This is the Chinese sesame sauce I used (Ji Mah Jang).
