Cold Ramen (Hiyashi Chuka)
Cold ramen consists of noodles and various toppings. It's a cold version of classic hot ramen soup. Ideal for summer days.
Ingredients
- 200 g chicken breasts
- 1/4 cucumber
- 1 tomato
- 2 eggs
- Wheat noodles (100 – 150 g uncooked noodles)
- Salt, pepper
Dressing:
- 6 tbsp vinegar
- 4 tbsp water
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1/2 tbsp sesame oil
Instructions
- Boil water for the noodles. They should be wheat noodles, not rice, and neither thick nor very thin.
- Cut the meat into thin strips (thinner than you can see in the photo :-D). Season with pepper and salt, and fry in a pan. (But you can also use any other spices that you like. For example, I added a little soy sauce with garlic).
- Cut cucumber and tomato into thin strips or quarters in the case of tomatoes.
- Break the eggs in a bowl, you can add a pinch of salt and black pepper. Bake in a little oil like crepes and then cut them into thin strips.
- Cook noodles according to instructions on the packaging. Wash them under running water to cool them down and to wash off the starch and prevent them from sticking.
- Mix all ingredients for dressing.
- And let's serve - first put noodles and then gradually each topping, and pour over the sauce. I don't recommend serving in a deep bowl, but rather in a wider plate.
