Cut cucumber in half, then into quarters, and then into small cubes about the size of a pinky fingertip.

Cut ground pork into small cubes about 0.5 cm thick, similar size to cucumber cubes.

In a skillet, heat 100g of vegetable oil over low heat.

Add 3.5 tablespoons of fermented soybean paste and stir continuously for about 3 minutes to prevent burning.

After the paste is fragrant, add the ground pork and stir gently to coat the meat with the sauce while cooking it evenly for about 6 minutes.

Add the diced cucumber to the pan without mixing it with the meat and sauce, and let it fry in the oil for 1 minute to prevent it from releasing water.

After 1 minute, mix the cucumber with the meat and sauce and fry together for another 30 seconds.

Prepare the noodles using a Philips automatic noodle machine with 700g of wheat flour and 180ml of water, adding 5g of salt and 2g of baking soda for better texture.

Start the machine and slowly pour the water into the flour.

Cook the noodles in boiling water with a little salt for 3-4 minutes, stirring gently to prevent sticking, adding a bit of cold water if needed.

After 4 minutes, drain the noodles and serve them topped with the sauce and a drizzle of oil.
