Ingredients
 

  • 8 oz beef, chicken or pork thinly sliced
  • 5.5 oz korean glass noodles (funchoza)
  • cups sliced onion
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms fresh or frozen
  • 1 cup bell pepper thinly sliced
  • 1 cup carrot cut into thin matchsticks
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 small cucumber
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • sunflower oil for frying
  • ¼ cup toasted sesame seeds
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons dried coriander
  • ¼ cup spicy soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons chopped green onion
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh dill

Instructions
 

  • Slice the meat into thin strips and fry it in hot vegetable oil until cooked through and lightly browned.
  • Cut the mushrooms into small pieces.
  • Cut the carrots into thin slices or matchsticks.
  • Slice the bell peppers into thin half‑rings.
  • Cut the onion into quarters and slice.
  • Fry the mushrooms in vegetable oil until all their liquid has evaporated and they start to brown.
  • Sauté the prepared vegetables in vegetable oil for 4–5 minutes, just until slightly softened but still crisp.
  • Make thin egg crêpes: beat one egg at a time and fry it like a very thin pancake in the same pan you used before. Repeat with all 3 eggs, then stack and slice the egg crêpes into thin strips.
  • Slice the cucumber into medium‑thick slices or thin sticks.
  • Prepare the funchoza according to the package directions. For this recipe, pour boiling water over the noodles, let them sit for 7 minutes, then drain, rinse and cut them into 2–3 inch (5–7 cm) lengths.
  • Make the dressing: in a bowl, mix together the spicy soy sauce, ground black pepper, minced garlic, sesame seeds and dried coriander until combined.
  • Assemble the salad and serve in portions. In a large salad bowl, combine the funchoza, sliced egg crêpes, fried meat and sautéed vegetables. Pour the dressing over everything and toss well. Pile some grated or finely sliced cucumber in the center. If you like, sprinkle with chopped green onion and dill before serving.
  • Let the salad sit to marinate for at least 20 minutes so the flavors can blend before serving.

Notes

  1. For a balanced taste, cut all the vegetables into thin strips similar in thickness to glass noodles, so they mix evenly in the salad.
  2. You can use any type of lean meat—beef, chicken breast, or pork—the key is to slice it very thin so it cooks quickly without drying out.
  3. Adjust the level of spiciness by adding spicy soy sauce or chili flakes to taste; start with a smaller amount and only add more at the end, after the salad has absorbed the flavors.
  4. Let the salad rest in the fridge for at least 20–30 minutes before serving, so the glass noodles absorb the dressing well and the flavors of garlic, sesame, and coriander intensify.
  5. If you prepare the salad in advance, keep the cucumber and herbs separate and add them just before serving to maintain a fresh and crunchy texture.
