GARNISH

Cucumber

Pea Sprouts

Sesame Seeds

This is a cold or room temperature dish.

First things first, roast your sesame seeds! Simply put them in a pan and heat to your preferred roasty level.

NOODLE

Choose your pot based on how much vermicelli you'll be making. Boil your water, add the noodles, cook until you're pleased with it. Strain and then put in a bowl to keep. Cover the noodles in sesame oil to prevent them from sticking while you finish cooking.

SAUCE

For the sauce, you'll need a small, shallow pan. Trickle a decent amount of sesame and spicy sesame oil into it. One it's gotten warm, add minced garlic. Add some sesame seeds, some Roasted Chilli Sauce, be generous with some Mirin, add little soya sauce, some Japanese 7 Spice, some Japanese Rice Vinegar... Keep on going until you're satisfied with the flavour. It should have a nice roasted feel to it, and it will be very oily. 

GARNISH

Pick between a cucumber julienne or shredded cucumber, then add to the platter. Sprinkle on some pea sprouts and some sesame needs to finish it off.
