Ingredients
2–3 tbsp avocado oil
1/2 tbsp red chili flakes
1 small garlic clove, minced
1 tbsp green onions, chopped
1 tbsp sesame seeds
1 tsp granulated sugar
1 tbsp Gochujang
2 tbsp soy sauce
3 tbsp warm water or chicken broth
Pinch of salt, to taste
8 sheets rice paper
Chopped cilantro for garnish
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Rice Paper Noodles
Dip 2 sheets of rice paper (or 3 for thicker noodles) into warm water until slightly softened.
Stack the sheets evenly on a cutting board.
Lightly brush both sides with oil to prevent sticking.
Allow the rice paper to fully rehydrate for a minute.
Cut into 1-inch thick strips or your desired noodle width.
Transfer the noodles to a bowl of cold water to keep them hydrated.
Repeat with the remaining rice paper sheets.
Step 2: Prepare the Chili Oil Mixture
In a heatproof bowl, combine the chili flakes, garlic, green onions, sesame seeds, sugar, and Gochujang.
Step 3: Heat the Oil
Heat the avocado oil in a small pan over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking.
Carefully pour the hot oil over the chili mixture.
Stir immediately as it sizzles and releases aroma.
Step 4: Finish the Sauce
Stir in the soy sauce, warm water or chicken broth, and a pinch of salt.
Mix well until smooth.
Step 5: Toss the Noodles
Drain the rice paper noodles.
Add them directly to the sauce bowl.
Toss thoroughly until evenly coated.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Step 6: Garnish and Serve
Top with chopped cilantro before serving.
Enjoy immediately while chewy and flavorful.
Notes
Use 3 rice paper sheets together for thicker, chewier noodles.
Adjust the chili flakes or Gochujang for your preferred spice level.
Chicken broth adds extra savory depth, but water works perfectly for a vegetarian version.
Add cucumber, soft-boiled eggs, or tofu for a more filling meal.
Toss noodles quickly after draining to prevent sticking.
