Bean Sprout Namul (ナムル)

Basically, I like to add Kanten to any salads and appetizers.
This Namul (ナムル) is one of my favorite recipe for using a Salad Kanten Noodle. Just by adding this kanten, it gives additional texture, the sense of fullness and necessary dietary fibre. Yum yum:)

Ingredients
‐Spinach 1/2 bunches (100g)
-Carrots 1/2 stick (80g)
-Bean Sprouts 1/3 bag (80g)
-Kanten Salad Noodle 1/3 bag (5g)
-Sesame Oil 1.5tbs
-Sesame 1tbs
-Soy Sauce 1/2tbs
-Chicken stock (or Vegetable stock for vegan/vegetarian) 1/3tsp
-Salt pinch
-Garlic grated 1tsp

Instruction
1. Blanch vegetables as desire.
*I recommend blanching root veggies longer time and leaf veggies shorter time.
2. Soak the kanten salad noodles in water for 5-6 mins.
3. Drain off the water thoroughly from the kanten(2.).
4. Cut the kanten into half.
5. Mix sesami oil, sesami, soy sauce, chicken stock and pinch of salt.
6. Put all vegetables (1.), the kanten(4.) into a ball and pour the mix(5.) and mix well.

  • Not only are Kanten noodles a healthy addition to any salad, but they’re wonderful in a soup or stir fry. Rather than using pasta or rice, I prefer to use Kanten salad noodles with tofu and vegetables. Although the noodles are light, they still give flavour and body to any dish. They are also much quicker to prepare, since they only need to be soaked in water rather than boiled or cooked. I wish I would have discovered Kanten years ago.
