I added some fish sauce and served it with Sri Raka, it was quite tasty! My husband hates sprouts so he spent about 20 minutes picking them out of his plate but ate it once he had de-sprouted, next time I will maybe do the sprouts on the side and do some celery for him so there's still a bit of crunch

    Although the dish tasted amazing, the only issue I had was that the fresh rice noodles I used clumped up once I tossed them into the wok. Any suggestions?

    It was a dark and stormy night... so I didn't feel like traipsing out to find chinese chives- used scallions. Also, the grocery store was out of beansprouts so I subbed some sliced mushrooms. The whole thing tasted amazing! Served with some sriracha sauce for a delicious, comforting meal in one. Thanks!

    Delicious!! I made this as written using dried rice noodles but will use fresh next time (would have used them this time but my store didn't get their delivery). Also, I doubled the seasoning amount because we like things 'soupy'. Add the optional Chinese chives, if you can get them, they really add a nice flavor. This is my favorite dish at our local Chinese restaurant and I'm so happy that I can now make it at home. Thanks so much KitchenManiac, you've done it again! Thanks for posting this recipe.
