Vegetarian Naengmyeon

Vegetarian Naengmyeon

Koreans are experts at making chewy noodles and I'm so grateful to Youtubers like Mommytang and Maangchi for introducing me to Naengmyeon.

I've taken their recipe and given my own twist because I guess I have a different palate and this palate craves deep, rich and more often than not, spicy flavours.

Since I've attempted an Oxtail Noodle recipe yesterday, I wanted to experiment with a meatless version today.

I've decided to braise mushrooms and tofu sheets for dinner tonight. Here's my recipe:

Serves 2 pax

Ingredients:

  • Dried Chinese Mushrooms - 5-6 pcs

  • Shallots - 2

  • Garlic - 1

  • Leeks - 2 stalks

  • Ginger - 3" root sliced

  • Dried Chillies - 4 pieces

  • Soy Sauce - 2 tbsp

  • Dark Soy Sauce - 2 tbsp

  • Corn Starch - 1/2 tsp diluted in water

  • Fried Tofu Sheets - 1 packet

  • Chinese Rice Wine - 2 tsp (optional)

  • Naengmyeon - 1 fistful

  • Spring Onions - for garnishing

Steps:

  1. Soak Dried Chinese Mushrooms in hot water until it is half done. Remove stalk

  1. Blanch fried tofu sheets to remove excess oil for a few seconds and set aside. Also, blanch some veggies like brocollini and lastly, blanch the noodles

  2. Heat a bit of oil and fry all the aromatics in high heat. Add Chinese mushrooms including the water that soaked them into the pot

  3. Pour in sauces and wine

  4. Close the lid and let it boil in high heat over 5 minutes. Turn the heat down and continue for another 15 minutes. That's it!
