How To Make Rice Paper Noodles
1. To prepare your rice paper noodles, start by adding warm water in a large bowl and lightly grease a cutting board with a little oil.
2. Next, take 5 pieces of dry rice paper and stack them on top of each other. And soak them in the warm water for a few seconds until softened.
3. Take it out of the water and place it onto the greased cutting board. Using your fingers, try to get rid of any air bubbles. The rice papers should have stuck together at this point.
4. Take a sharp knife and cut into around 1-inch wide noodles. Place the noodles into a bowl with some cold water to prevent them from sticking. They are now ready to enjoy with any sauce of your choice. I recommend cooking them with a sauce for a few minutes on a pan with small splashes of water.
To make a delicious sauce for noodles, continue to the next step.
5. To make a delicious rice paper noodle dish, heat some oil on a non-stick pan on medium-high heat and saute minced garlic for a minute.
6. Next, add soy sauce, dark soy sauce (or soy-free alternative), sugar, noodles, and baby bok choy (or other vegetables), along with a splash of water.
7. Let this cook for around 2-3 minutes while stirring frequently, adding small splashes of water as needed until the noodles are cooked to your liking and have absorbed the sauce.
8. Place your noodles on a plate and top with sesame seeds and green onion! Enjoy your tasty 5-mins noodles made from rice paper!
