vegetarian, simple

Chop the bell peppers, 1/3 of the cucumber, the tomatoes, and the onion into small pieces. Blend together with the garlic, kimchi, cumin, vinegar, gochujang, salt, pepper, and optionally sugar until the consistency resembles a soup with small pieces. Then add the olive oil and blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate. Boil the noodles until al dente and the eggs until hard-boiled. Meanwhile, cut the cucumber into thin strips; the finer and more flexible the strips, the better; ideally, they should resemble spaghetti. Rinse the boiled eggs, peel them, and halve them. Drain the spaghetti well. Now pour the sauce into a bowl or deep plate, arrange the spaghetti on top, and garnish with cucumber strips, eggs, and finally, the sesame seeds.
