Step 1
Cook the 8 oz noodles in boiling salted water until tender, about 5-7 minutes. Drain, rinse under cold water, and divide between 2 bowls.
Step 2
Season the 4 oz sliced beef with salt and pepper. Sear in a hot skillet until browned and cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per side.
Step 3
Pour 1 cup of cold soy milk over each noodle bowl. Top with the beef, 1 sliced cucumber, 1 sliced tomato, and 0.25 cup cilantro leaves.
Step 4
Add salt to taste and serve immediately, chilled.
Step 5
For extra flavor, stir in a splash of sesame oil or a pinch of gochugaru if you have them.
