Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the rice noodles according to the package instructions. Drain, rinse with cold water, and set aside.
While the noodles cook, finely mince the garlic and grate the ginger.
In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and ginger, cooking for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the red curry paste to the skillet, stirring constantly for about 1 minute to release its flavors.
Pour in the coconut milk and stir to combine. Allow the mixture to simmer gently for 2-3 minutes.
Whisk in the peanut butter, soy sauce, maple syrup, lime juice, and water. Stir until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
Add the cooked noodles to the skillet, tossing to coat them evenly in the sauce. Cook for 1-2 minutes until heated through.
Chop the green onions and cilantro. Sprinkle them over the noodles along with the crushed peanuts for garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your red curry peanut noodles!
