Northern-style cold noodles

Method

1. Cook the noodles in a large pan of boiling water for 3-5 minutes, then drain and plunge them in cold water.

2. Drain the noodles thoroughly and toss them with the sesame oil. Arrange them on a platter or in a large bowl.

3. Make the sauce by simply mixing all the ingredients together in a bowl or blender.

4. To serve, pour the sauce on top of the noodles and toss well, then garnish with the spring onions.

Cooks Notes:
As it's served cold, the sauce can be made in advance and kept refrigerated until you're ready to serve the dish.
