This is a refreshing recipe that makes use of somen, salted pork and kimchi. This dish is very light but delicious. It's so easy and simple to make when you have leftover slated pork in the fridge.

200 g wheat flour noodles (somen)
1 tablespoon sesame oil
100 g bean sprouts
2 cups pork broth (from cooking salted pork)
1/4 cup korean pickled napa cabbage (kimchi)
25 g garlic chives
200 g salt pork (see my Okinawa Salted Pork recipe)
1/2 cucumber

  • Heat a pan using medium heat then add half a tablespoon of sesame oil. Add the bean sprouts then stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes or until it is cooked. Add a little bit of salt and pepper.
  • Chop the garlic chives into small pieces then slice the cucumber into thin strips.
  • Slice the salted pork into thin pieces.
  • Cook the somen noodles according to package's instruction. Drain then immediately rinse it with cold running water to stop the cooking process. Drain then toss half a tablespoon of sesame oil to prevent the noodles from sticking.
