Soak the rice noodles in warm water for 10-15 minutes or per package instructions until softened. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, prepare the satay sauce by whisking together the coconut milk, peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, and brown sugar until smooth. Set aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Stir in the chili flakes, carrots, and red bell pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften but retain some crunch.
Add the softened noodles to the skillet and toss to combine with the vegetables.
Pour the satay sauce over the noodles and gently toss to coat everything evenly. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until heated through.
Remove from heat and garnish with chopped scallions, cilantro, and crushed peanuts (if using).
Serve warm and enjoy your flavorful Thai Satay Noodles!
