Spicy Rice Noodles With Ground Pork And Scallions
What’s more comforting than a bowl of noodles with spicy and savory ground pork? With fragrant, flavorful sesame oil, scallions, and chile-garlic paste, this dish is a treat for all of the senses.
Instructions
- 1
Place the noodles in a large bowl and add boiling water to cover. Use tongs to separate the noodles to prevent clumping, then let sit for 5 minutes to soften. Reserve ¼ cup of the noodle soaking water and drain the noodles.

Meanwhile, heat the sesame oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add the pork and minced scallions, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring to break up the pork with a wooden spoon, until browned, 6–8 minutes.

Add the noodles, reserved soaking water, and the chile-garlic paste to the wok and stir until the noodles are evenly coated in the sauce.

Transfer the noodles and sauce to serving bowls and top with the sliced scallion greens. Serve with more sesame oil and chile-garlic paste alongside.
