Cook the Noodles
Bring 1 litre of water to a boil in a large pot. Once boiling, add the fresh rice noodles and cook according to package instructions (usually about 3-5 minutes) until they are tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.

Cool the Noodles
Once cooked, drain the noodles in a colander and rinse them under cold water to stop the cooking process. Allow them to drain completely and set aside.
