Paso a Paso

01

Prepare the Noodles

Soak the rice noodles in lukewarm water for 20 minutes until they are limp but still firm to the touch. Drain and set aside.

02

Wok Preparation

Heat high-smoke point oil in a wok until shimmering. Sear the tofu and shrimp separately until golden. Remove and set aside to maintain texture.

03

The Tamarind Infusion

Add the tamarind paste, palm sugar, and fish sauce to the wok. Simmer until the sauce thickens slightly before returning the noodles to the heat.
