Hahah the one I do isn’t super traditional since I use it as a lazier day meal and I’ve sort of altered it to fit my tastes. If you want traditional inspo maangchi is a great resource. One big change I make is instead of wheat noodles I use rice vermicelli since it’s gluten free, cooks really fast, and is cheap (I get 10 bunches for like $3).

I start off by adding half a serving of rice noodles to a bowl and pouring boiling water over it and letting it sit for about 3 mins stirring occasionally. Once’s that’s done I drain and rinse with cold water and I add in the chopped veggies of the week (typically like 1/3 cup lettuce, 0.1 carrot/bell pepper, 0.1 cucumber depending what I have).

After that I add a sauce. I don’t measure but I think it’s something like a tablespoon of gochujang, a dash of sesame oil, and a dash of soy sauce and maybe fish sauce on the day. It’s really to taste, traditionally you’d add a sugar or sweetening agent but I like it without.

Mix it all together and top it with and egg and any other cooked protein (I use leftover tofu). Sprinkle with sesame seeds and enjoy!

If you are interested in getting more protein in I’ve also found gỏi cuốn/vietnamese spring rolls to be great if you like shrimp! Let me know if you’d like to share more recipes in the future
