Hot Chicken Curry Vermicelli


A great singapore style noodle my brother sent me. Very easy and impresses my roommates without digging a hole in my budget. It's versatile as well. You can substitute chicken with tofu, shrimp (another favorite), beef, imitation crab, canned tuna, etc. Plus, it's much healthier than cream-based pasta. Enjoy!!

Steps


Place rice noodles in large bowl , cover with very hot tap water and soak for 10 minutes.
Drain well.
In small bowl , combine stock , soy sauce , sugar , sesame oil and rice wine.
Heat vegetable oil in large non-stick wok on medium-high heat.
Stir-fry chicken chunks for a few minutes until slightly browned.
Check the seasoning.
Remove and reserve.
Add garlic , ginger and green onions to wok.
Cook for 30 seconds.
Add curry powder and chili paste and cook for 10 to 20 seconds longer.
Add leeks , carrot and red pepper.
Cook until barely wilted.
Add bean sprouts and reserved sauce and bring to a boil.
Add chicken / tofu and noodles and cook together until hot and well combined.
Serve hot.
