Bring a large pot of water to a boil, then remove from heat and add the rice noodles. Let them soak for about 8-10 minutes or until tender but still slightly firm. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the julienned carrot, sliced red bell pepper, and snow peas to the skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 3-4 minutes until they are just tender but still crisp.
Push the vegetables to the side of the skillet and add the drained rice noodles to the center. Pour the gluten-free soy sauce and sesame oil over the noodles.
Toss everything together to combine, ensuring that the noodles are well coated with the sauce and mixed with the vegetables. Stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes to heat through.
Season the noodles with salt and black pepper. Add the sliced spring onions and sesame seeds, tossing everything once more to distribute evenly.
Transfer the fried noodles to a serving platter and garnish with chopped cilantro if using. Serve immediately.
