Pour boiling water over the glass noodles and leave them to soak until soft. Then drain well.
Slice the king oyster mushrooms and grate the carrots into fine strips.
Fry the king oyster mushrooms in a frying pan without oil at first, until they release their water and take on a little colour.
Whisk the lime juice, soy sauce and sesame oil into a dressing. Season so it's balanced between salty and sour.
Toss the glass noodles thoroughly with the king oyster mushrooms, carrots and dressing so everything comes together well.
Before serving, let the glass noodle salad stand briefly, then serve lukewarm or cold.
