This dish is inspired by the Korean dish Japchae that uses sweet potato noodles, sometimes called glass noodles. Using the hearts of palm noodles (found in many grocery stores sometimes in the International aisle), makes this dish much healthier and very easy to make.
The sauce makes this dish and has a wonderful nutty flavor thanks to the use of toasted sesame oil. The combination of vegetables is not critical. If you cannot find leeks, just use more onion. If you cannot find Napa cabbage, you can use regular cabbage, you may need to cook it a bit longer. Best served immediately after cooking.
