Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Cook the Rice Noodles

    Bring 500 ml of water to a boil in a pot. Once boiling, add the rice noodles and cook according to package instructions, usually around 5-7 minutes, until tender. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Garlic

    In a large skillet or wok, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

  3. 3

    Combine Noodles and Sauce

    Add the cooked rice noodles to the skillet. Pour in 3 tablespoons of soy sauce and mix well to coat the noodles evenly. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently.

  4. 4

    Season and Serve

    Add chopped green onions, salt, and pepper to taste. Stir well and cook for another minute. Remove from heat and serve hot.
