    Method

    2. 2

      Brush a thin layer of batter in an oiled pan and steam over high heat 2 minutes until bubbly and translucent.

    3. 3

      Cool the pan in cold water, peel off the sheet and oil it; repeat.

    4. 4

      Cut sheets into wide noodles.

    5. 5

      Toss with cucumber, sprouts, gluten cubes and the sauce; top with cilantro.
