Rice noodles. They are a great alternative to traditional pasta noodles. Never seen them in your grocery store? More and more, they are popping up on shelves as alternatives for many different types of diet needs. And of course, it’s a great change up to what may be your go-to noodle for various dishes.
The sesame oil used here is also key. That “umami” flavor is unmistakeable, and gives the dish the punch found in so many Asian dishes. A little goes a long way, but can be adjusted to your personal taste.
And of course, I urge you to play with the veggies you could add. Bell peppers, Asian basil, cilantro, bean sprouts–whatever you have on hand could be in your belly tonight!
