Instructions
Step 1: Soak the vermicelli in water till soft for about 30 minutes (I used chilli brand),
Ingredients:
- chili pepper
- water
Step 2: Drain and set aside.Using a food processor, grind the spice paste till fine and set aside.
Ingredients:
- spice paste
Equipment:
- food processor
Step 3: Heat wok with some oil and make the beaten eggs into an omelette. Fold and slice the omelette thinly. Set aside.
Ingredients:
- egg
- cooking oil
Equipment:
- wok
Step 4: Heat up the wok and add 3 tablespoons of oil. Once the oil is heated, fry the spice paste until aromatic and the oil separates. This ensures that the chillies are cooked through and you will not get that 'grassy' taste of raw chillies.
Ingredients:
- spice paste
- chili pepper
- cooking oil
Equipment:
- wok
Step 5: Add shrimps, stir-frying until half done, then add the fried tofu pieces.

Step 6: Add the vermicelli and keep stirring until the spice paste has spread evenly. (you may add about half cup of water to it if you find the rice vermicelli is still quite dry when frying)
Ingredients:
- rice vermicelli
- spice paste
- spread
- water
Step 7: Add sugar and salt to taste, if requred, followed by bean sprouts and chives. Continue to stir-fry until the vegetables are cooked. Taste and adjust the seasoning by adding more salt or sugar to taste. If the noodles taste bland, add a little soy sauce/fish sauce to taste.
Ingredients:
- bean sprouts
