Steps to make Korean-style Spicy Cucumber and Cellophane Noodle Salad:
- I like to use thick cellophane noodles for this recipe. They keep their shape.
- Slice the cucumbers slightly thickly and diagonally. Soak in salted water for about 2 minutes. Rinse and drain well or pat dry.
- If your cucumbers have a lot of seeds or are too ripe, scrape the seeds with a spoon. Then soak in the salted water.
- Add salt, pepper and sake to the water for poaching the chicken breast. Add the leftover Japanese leek too. Put in the chicken breast and bring to the boil over a high heat. After bringing to the boil, turn the heat down to low and cook for about 1minute.
- Remove the pan from the heat and leave to cool. After cooling take the chicken out of the poaching liquid and shred the meat.
- Cook the noodles following the instructions and rinse. Drain well (or squeeze) and mix with a little sesame oil to prevent from sticking to each other.
- These are the prepared ingredients.
- These are the vegetables for the dressing -Ginger, garlic and the core of the leftover Japanese leek. Except from the Japanese leek, chop the vegetables finely.
- Mix the vegetables with the other seasonings to make the dressing.
- Mix well and add a tiny amount of grated garlic. Do not forget this.
- When you finish the preparation chill everything in the fridge. Lukewarm ingredients won't make a tasty salad.
- Just before serving. Take 3 tablespoons of the dressing and mix the noodles with it. Mix roughly with your hand and transfer to a serving plate.
- Put the cucumber and chicken breast into the dressing bowl and mix well with your hands.
- Add the Japanese leek at the end. Mix with your hands. Transfer to the serving plate.
- Place the thinly julienned white part of the Japanese leek and Korean chili powder on top. Done.
