  • Bird's Eye Chilies4
  • Wide Rice Noodles300 g

Instructions

  1. 1

    Boil the noodles a minute shy of the packet time, drain, and toss with a splash of the Coconut Oil so they don't clump.

  2. 2

    Heat the rest of the Coconut Oil in a wok until it shimmers, then flash the garlic for a few seconds.

  3. 3

    Add the green beans and cook until just done, then splash in the fish sauce.

  4. 4

    Slide the noodles in and toss vigorously for 60 seconds so every strand picks up the sauce.

  5. 5

    Finish off the heat with spring onions and fresh cilantro.

Chef's tip

For deeper flavour, toast the red curry paste in the oil before adding anything wet.
