A quick and flavorful dish featuring noodles tossed in a spicy, savory sauce with fresh vegetables and a hint of garlic and ginger.
150 grams dried rice noodles
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
1 small red chili, thinly sliced
1/2 cup shredded carrots
1/2 cup thinly sliced bell pepper
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon chili garlic sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 cup chopped green onions
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
Cook the rice noodles according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic, minced ginger, and sliced red chili to the skillet. Stir-fry for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the shredded carrots and sliced bell pepper to the skillet. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender but still crisp.
In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, chili garlic sauce, sesame oil, and sugar until the sugar dissolves.
Add the cooked noodles to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the sauce mixture over the noodles and toss well to combine and heat through, about 2 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in the chopped green onions.
Serve the spicy noodles hot, garnished with toasted sesame seeds.
