Tips and Tricks

 
Pre-cook the rice noodles before stir-frying to save time and prevent overcooking.
Prepare all ingredients before starting to stir-fry, as the process moves quickly.
Use high heat to ensure that the dish is cooked quickly and evenly.
Don't overcrowd the pan with too many ingredients at once, as this can prevent proper cooking.
