In a hurry? This Easy Lao Gan Ma Stir-fry Instant Rice Noodles takes only 10 minutes to make! It is an absolute comfort food and a good quick idea for lunch, dinner–or even breakfast.
The key ingredient is the well-known Chinese Spicy Chili Sauce – Lao Gan Ma 老干妈! This translates to “Old Godmother” in English. Lao Gan Ma is my favorite among all Chili Sauces because its taste and name fills my childhood memories. While growing up, I ate this sauce so many times. Now, as a recipe creator, I use Lao Gan Ma to enhance most of my fried rice and noodle dishes.
So fast and so delicious—that’s my Easy Lao Gan Ma Stir-fry Instant Rice Noodles! If you learn to love Lao Gan Ma the way I do, try out my Sichuan Spicy Boiled Fish og Chinese Spicy Cold Rice Noodles.
LAO GAN MA AND INSTANT RICE NOODLES
There are different kinds of Lao Gan Ma for sale, such as Chili Oil with Black Bean, Fried Chili in Oil, and Spicy Chili Crisp. These are great, but my absolute favorite is Kohlrabi, Peanuts & Tofu in Chili Oil 辣三丁油辣椒. I especially love the Peanuts and Tofu for the extra crunchiness they provide. My favorite Instant Rice Noodles is a Thai brand – MAMA. The noodle texture is fantastic for such a convenient instant noodle.
VEGETABLES
In this recipe, I use the combination of Lettuce and dried Tofu. For stir-fry, you are always encouraged to add other veggies of your choice, such as Carrot or Shiitake Mushroom.

Hi, I really want to give this one a try. Just wonder if I can add chicken to this recipe?
Hi Lily, yes of course. You can add Chicken. I suggest you cook the Chicken separately before stir frying with the noodles.
