Instructions
Place noodles in a large bowl and cover with hot water. Set aside until noodles are softened
about 15 minutes. Drain and rinse thoroughly.
Heat oil in a wok over medium heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic until onion is translucent
about 5 minutes.
Combine rice wine vinegar
ketchup
fish sauce
chile sauce
peanut butter
soy sauce
lime juice
sugar
red pepper flakes
and cayenne pepper together in a bowl. Set aside.
Add shrimp to the wok. Cook and stir until pink
about 4 minutes. Add the ketchup mixture and stir. Move all ingredients to one side to clear a small space in the pan. Pour in eggs and cook without stirring until partially set
about 3 minutes.
Stir the drained noodles into the shrimp and egg mixture. Add 1/2 cup peanuts
1/4 cup bean sprouts
and carrots. Cook and stir until noodles are heated through
about 2 minutes. Garnish with the remaining peanuts
bean sprouts
lime wedges
green onions
and cilantro.
Cook's Notes:
If using pre-cooked shrimp
don't overcook.
Extra chile sauce can also be added for those who like it really spicy!
Use the garnish ingredients as desired. Some people prefer all the listed ingredients
