Cold noodles

Overview

The weather in Shanghai has been very hot recently. The weather forecast said it would rain, but the sun was still shining brightly. This is a fatal thing for fat girls without air conditioning! I feel lazy when it’s hot, and I want to keep things simple when eating, so let’s mix some cold noodles! Haha~~

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 The noodles are cooked in a pot, or dry noodles can be added. However, I still prefer the wet noodles pressed by the machine, which feels elastic.

   

2. 2 Cut the cucumber into shreds, not too fine without a grater.

   

3. 3 Cut off the shallots and cilantro and set aside the cilantro. Sauté the shallots and chili peppers together until fragrant. I forgot to take a photo of this step.

   

4. 4 Add ice cubes and water to the cooked noodles to cool

   

5. 5 After filtering the water, pour in the previously fried chili pepper, scallion oil and mix well. The reason why I put the onions in the oil is because I want the fragrance of the onions. I don’t like eating them raw because they taste bad in my mouth.

   

6. 6 Mix the seasoning and pour it over the noodles. There is no need to add chili here, the spiciness is already in the noodles!

   

7. 7 OK, it’s time to eat!
