Instructions

  1. Step 1: Soak 8 oz dried rice noodles in warm water for 20 minutes or until pliable, then drain and set aside.
  2. Step 2: Heat 3 tbsp vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add 4 thinly sliced garlic cloves and 2 thinly sliced red Thai chilies, stir-frying for 1-2 minutes until fragrant but not burnt.
  3. Step 3: Add the drained noodles to the wok, tossing gently to combine with the garlic and chili.
  4. Step 4: Stir in 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp oyster sauce, and 1 tsp brown sugar. Continue stir-frying for 3-4 minutes until the noodles are heated through and the sauce thickens slightly to coat the noodles.
  5. Step 5: Remove from heat and garnish with 1/4 cup sliced green onions and 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds before serving.

How do I store leftover Spicy Revanced-Inspired Stir-Fried Noodles with Garlic and Chili?

Can I substitute ingredients in Spicy Revanced-Inspired Stir-Fried Noodles with Garlic and Chili?
