Crispy Rice Noodles Recipe

Surprisingly simple to make, Crispy Rice Noodles might seem like a tricky, complicated addition, but they puff up in a matter of seconds—if your oil is hot enough! These light, crunchy vermicelli noodles will elevate your lettuce wraps, stir-fries, soups and salads from everyday mundane to restaurant-quality in minutes.

Add to Shopping List

Instructions

  1. Pour the peanut oil into a small pot set over high heat until there is at least 1 inch of oil. (You may not need the entire ¾ cup.) Heat 3-4 minutes, then test the oil to see if it is hot by adding in a single vermicelli noodle. If it is ready, the noodle will puff up almost instantaneously.
  2. Once oil is hot, add vermicelli noodles 1-2 tablespoons at a time. Cook until golden and puffy, no more than 10 seconds. Flip and repeat on the other side.
  3. Line a plate with paper towels. Transfer finished noodles to the paper towel-lined plate to drain and repeat with the remaining vermicelli noodles.
  4. Serve with PF Chang's chicken lettuce wraps, on soup or salads, or sprinkle with salt or seasonings for a quick snack!

Notes

  • Nutrition: Facts are estimates based on the noodles absorbing only a small amount of oil and no salt being added.
  • Storage: Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to 2 days. Avoid refrigeration since it will make them soften.
