Ingredients

Steps

1. Prepare Toppings
   1. Thinly slice cucumber into long strips.
   2. Slice the green onions (top part only)
   3. In a small bowl mix together the sugar, soy sauce, and vinegar. This will make it a little easier to serve up.
2. Boil Noodles
   1. Place a medium sized pot of water on the stove and bring to a boil. Add your noodles and cook according the packages instructions.
   2. When the noodles are done, drain and wash them under cold water to cool the off.
   3. Add the oil to the noodles to help keep them from sticking. (I used sesame oil because it’s what I had at hand. Any oil is fine.)
3. Assemble Bowls
   1. Get out 2 medium to large sized serving bowls and add the sesame paste, the sauce we mixed up, and some of the sliced cucumbers.
   2. Add half the noodles to each bowl and top with the green onions, cilantro, 1 tablespoon of the chili oil (per bowl, you can always add more if you want), and the rest of the cumcumbers.
   3. Enjoy!
