Method:
Boil the rice noodles with a little peanut oil and let it stay a slightly undercooked as you will be cooking the noodles again. Once they look almost ready, drain the water and put the noodles aside.
In a bowl mix soy sauce with the chopped chillies and garlic sprouts. Meanwhile, in a wok heat some peanut oil and add the edamame beans. Let this cook for about 5 minutes until the beans soften, and then add the enoki mushrooms, the soy mixture and the bok choy. Turn the heat to medium and let everything cook for another 5 minutes. Once this is done, add the noodles and mix it all together, letting the noodles cook entirely.
Garnish with finely chopped coriander and serve straight away.
Notes:
If you wish to add any different vegetables or meat to the dish, adjust the cooking times accordingly. Make sure meat and fish are cooked as per the instructions on the packaging.
If you enjoy a spicier dish, add extra chopped chilli at the end of the cooking process, or mix in some Oriental-style chilli sauce.
