Ingredients

Storing Leftovers
- To Store. After preparation, these curry noodles will last in the fridge for approximately 5 days. Allow them to cool before transferring them to an airtight container for optimal freshness.
- Avoid freezing as rice noodles tend to disintegrate upon thawing, compromising texture. Although the flavor remains intact, the noodles lose their integrity over time.
Reheating
Julia's Tip
The sauce will naturally thicken once cooled. When reheating add extra liquid to return initial consistency.
Tips
- If you like your Thai stir fry noodles more saucy, simply add ½ cup of boiled water to your sauce while cooking.
- No salt is added here as the sauce is quite salty already. Make sure not to add a lot of salt while boiling the noodles.
- You may need to add more liquid when reheating as the dish will become thick once cooled.
- We love to serve this stir fry with lots of toppings (try this pickled daikon radish) and salads such as spicy cucumber salad.
5 Star Review
I made this tonight, only thing different was I added more veggies. But let me tell you, my husband is Fijian and his mom makes amazing curries, so he’s tough to impress sometimes. But he and I, as well as our two teen boys LOVED this! Easy to prep everything ahead of time too for busy nights! Thank you!
