Korean noodle salad

Excellent quick lunch, when you want something spicy, crunchy and noodly.

  • 1 tsp tahini
  • 2 tbsp gochujang
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 2 tsp caster sugar
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • 250g soba noodles
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil
  • ½ cucumber, cut into matchsticks
  • 1 carrot, peeled and cut into matchsticks
  • 6 leaves red cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 60g kimchi, chopped
  • Handful toasted cashews
  • Toasted sesame seeds, to serve
  1. Mix the first 6 ingredients to create the sauce (tahini, gochujang, soy sauce, rice vinegar, caster sugar, sesame oil)
  2. Cook the noodles, cool and toss with sesame oil
  3. Add all other ingredients and mix together well

Top with a soft boiled egg if you fancy it or just tuck in as is. Hugely flexible to use whatever you’ve got in the fridge
