Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Gluten-free rice noodles
- 500 milliliters Vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
Instructions
Begin by soaking the gluten-free rice noodles in hot water for 8-10 minutes or until they are just tender, following the package instructions. Drain the noodles well and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.
While the noodles are soaking, heat the vegetable oil in a deep, heavy-bottomed skillet or wok over medium-high heat until it reaches 180°C (350°F). To check if the oil is hot enough, drop a small piece of noodle into the oil; it should sizzle and float to the surface immediately.
Carefully add a small batch of the soaked noodles into the hot oil. Do not overcrowd the pan, as this will lower the temperature of the oil and prevent the noodles from becoming crispy. Fry for 1-2 minutes or until the noodles puff up and turn golden brown.
Using a slotted spoon, remove the fried noodles from the oil and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil. Repeat with the remaining noodles.
Once all the noodles are fried, lightly season them with sea salt, ground black pepper, and paprika while they are still hot. Toss gently to ensure even seasoning.
Allow the noodles to cool completely before serving, ensuring maximum crispiness. Store any leftover noodles in an airtight container to keep them fresh and crunchy for up to 2 days.
