Begin by soaking the rice noodles in hot water for about 8 minutes or according to the package instructions. Once softened, drain and set aside.
In a large skillet or wok, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the red curry paste and turmeric powder, cooking for 1 minute to release the flavors.
Pour in the unsalted vegetable broth and coconut milk, stirring to combine the flavors thoroughly. Let the mixture come to a gentle simmer.
Add the sliced red bell pepper, julienned carrot, and snow peas to the skillet. Cook for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
Stir in the drained rice noodles, low sodium soy sauce, and ground black pepper, mixing everything together to ensure the noodles are well covered in the curry sauce.
Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the fresh lime juice.
Garnish with chopped cilantro and serve hot.
