Noter
It is important not to steam the rice noodles too long in the wok. The noodles are supposed to be still firm after steaming in the wok. The resting process in a bowl with the lid will continue to cook the rice noodles. In this way, the rice noodles can maintain the chewy texture when stir-frying.
Remember to always use large shrimp for satisfying bites.
Adding Dark Soy Sauce into the noodles before cooking helps to add that nice brown color to the noodles. It helps to reduce the time in stir-frying.
You can use other veggies of your choice, such as bok choy or carrots.
