ingredients

  • 9 sheets rice paper
  • 2 tablespoons San-J No Soy Tamari
  • 1 tablespoon red chili powder
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons Sichuan peppercorn powder
  • 1/4 cup hot water
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 scallion, thinly sliced for garnish
  • Cooked minced beef (optional), for garnish

Method

  • Step 1

    Lightly oil a cutting board with a brush.

  • Step 2

    Stack 3 sheets of rice paper, then dip them in cold water for a few seconds to soften.

  • Step 3

    Place the softened rice paper on the oiled cutting board and cut it into ½-inch wide noodle strips. Transfer the noodles to a bowl of water to prevent sticking. Repeat with the remaining rice paper.

  • Step 4

    Heat a wok over medium heat and lightly oil it. Add San-J No Soy Tamari, red chili powder, Sichuan peppercorn powder, hot water, and minced garlic. Stir to combine and heat until fragrant, about 1–2 minutes.

  • Step 5

    Drain the rice paper noodles and add them to the wok. Toss well to coat the noodles evenly in the sauce.

  • Step 6

    Serve immediately, topped with sliced scallions and cooked minced beef, if desired.
