Ingredients

How to Make It

  • 1

    Boil 200g rice noodles for 3 minutes, drain, and rinse with cold water to prevent sticking.

  • 2

    Press 200g tofu to remove moisture, slice into cubes, and fry in 1 tbsp sesame oil until golden.

  • 3

    Add 100g sliced mushrooms to the pan and sauté over high heat until browned, about 4 minutes.

  • 4

    Incorporate 3 tbsp soy sauce and 1 tsp chili flakes, tossing everything to combine flavors.

  • 5

    Add the cooked noodles back into the pan, mixing well with the tofu and mushrooms.

  • 6

    Fold in 50g fresh bean sprouts and 2 sliced green onions, cooking for just 60 seconds.

  • 7

    Serve immediately to keep the bean sprouts crunchy and the noodles texture-perfect.

  • 8

    Tip: Do not overcook the sprouts; they should provide a fresh snap in every bite.
