- Set up a little system of bowls to help you when you cook.

- Heat the oil in your pan until nice and hot then add the garlic.

- Stir them for 30 seconds or so more until they get really fragrant (you'll know when).
- Add the pork and cook until it browns, breaking up the meat as it lumps.
- Sprinkle in the sugar from the bowl to season the meat, and toss until it is mixed.
- Pour in the fish/soy from its bowl and stir quickly while it thickens just a bit, usually about 1 minute or so.
- Add the rice noodles to the pan and toss and turn them to mix the meat into them, using your tools to break up any spots that may try to clump (add a little oil if they clump badly).
- Stir in about 3/4 of the basil and cook just till it begins to wilt, then add the tomatoes and remove the pan from the heat.
- Mix once, and pour on a serving platter.
- Garnish with the rest of the basil and serve hot, with sambal oelek, or sriracha sauce, if desired.

Steps:
- Preheat a grill to medium high and prepare for indirect grilling. On a charcoal grill, bank the coals to one side; on a gas grill, turn off half the burners. Combine the lemongrass, 2 tablespoons fish sauce, the brown sugar, 1 tablespoon each sesame oil, lime juice and water and a pinch each of salt and pepper in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sugar is dissolved, about 1 minute. Pour into a heatproof bowl; stir in 1 more tablespoon lime juice.
- Toss the wings in a separate bowl with 3 tablespoons of the sauce and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Place on the cooler side of the grill (indirect heat), cover and cook, turning once, until cooked through but not browned, 15 to 25 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook and cool the noodles as the label directs. Cut the cucumber into matchsticks. Toss in a colander with a pinch of salt; squeeze to remove the excess liquid. Add to the noodles along with the chile, herbs and remaining 3 tablespoons sesame oil, 2 teaspoons fish sauce and 2 teaspoons lime juice; season with salt and pepper and toss, adding more lime juice to taste.
- Move the wings to direct heat; cook, turning and brushing with some of the remaining sauce, until crisp, 10 more minutes. Transfer to a bowl and toss with the remaining sauce. Serve with the noodles.

SPICY RICE NOODLES WITH CRISPY TOFU AND SPINACH
Herby noodles, chile oil and crisp tofu come together in this spicy, filling bowl that will disappear before you know it. But the component parts are just as valuable on their own: Make crisp baked tofu once, and you may never pan-fry cubes again. Make a scallion-basil paste on your cutting board, and forget about pesto from the food processor. And make a little extra spicy sesame oil, so that you can swirl it into scrambled eggs and smashed cucumber salads.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. As the oven heats, press the tofu (you can do this by sandwiching the block in paper towels and placing a cutting board, plus a heavy pot, can or book on top).
- Cut the tofu into 1/2-inch cubes and place in a medium bowl. Add the salt and oils, and toss to combine.
- Sprinkle the cornstarch, panko and sesame seeds, if using, and toss gently so the tofu cubes are coated.
- Spread on the prepared sheet and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, flipping once, until golden-brown and crisp.
- While the tofu bakes, start the noodles: Put the dry rice noodles in a big, wide bowl. Fill a kettle, bring the water to a boil, and pour the boiling water over the noodles to cover. Set aside for 6 to 10 minutes, until the noodles are fully rehydrated and soft. (Time may vary by brand.) Then drain, rinse with cold water, and drain again. Transfer noodles to a large bowl.
- As the noodles soak, prepare the spicy sesame oil: In a small pot, combine sesame oil, peanut oil, garlic, ginger, red-pepper flakes and sesame seeds. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook on the lowest heat for 10 to 12 minutes, until the garlic slices turn golden.
- Meanwhile, on your cutting board, make a small mound with the teaspoon of salt. Place the basil and the scallions on top, and use your knife to furiously chop and smash until you have a rough paste.
- Mix the basil paste into the bowl of rice noodles. Pile the baby spinach on top. Pour at least half of the hot oil immediately over the spinach, tossing so that the heat wilts the leaves slightly. Then add the juice of the 1/2 lime and toss to combine. Taste for salt and lime juice, and add more oil as you see fit.
- Arrange the tofu on top of the noodles, or mix them in so that the cubes hide like little treasures. For extra flair, garnish with additional sesame seeds and a drizzle of toasted sesame oil.

Steps:

RICE NOODLES WITH THAI BASIL, MINT AND PEANUTS
Sort of a conglomeration of Asian cuisines. The original recipe has fresh cilantro only, but we liked both cilantro and Thai basil. From Bon Appetit April 1996. Rice noodles are available at Asian markets. I also like to throw in a fresh tomato or two (sliced or diced) to the mix.

RICE NOODLE BOWLS WITH SWEET CHILI CHICKEN
One of my favorite Vietnamese dishes is bun thịt nuong, which consists of cold or room temperature rice vermicelli topped with grilled pork and pickled and fresh vegetables. When I can't get to my favorite Vietnamese restaurant, I make this easy and tasty riff at home. It's layered with incredible flavor, which comes from sweet and tangy stir-fried chicken, aromatic basil and the best-ever quick pickles. Don't have the rice noodles? Swap in your favorite grain, pasta or spiralized vegetable.

Steps:
- Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil, then add a small handful of salt. Cook the noodles according to the package directions. Drain in a colander and rinse under cold water. Add 1 tablespoon of the canola oil and toss to coat.
- While the noodles cook, in a medium bowl, mix the cucumber, onion and jalapeno with the 1/4 cup rice vinegar and a generous pinch of salt. Let stand for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk the sweet chili sauce with the soy sauce, cornstarch and the remaining 1 tablespoon of the rice vinegar. In a large cast-iron skillet or wok, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon canola oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Stir in the chili sauce mixture and cook until the chicken is glazed, about 2 minutes.
- Transfer the noodles to bowls and top with the chicken. Serve with the pickled vegetables and basil leaves.
Tips:
- Soak the rice noodles: Soaking the rice noodles in warm water before cooking helps to soften them and make them more pliable. This will prevent them from becoming too sticky or breaking when you stir-fry them.
- Use a large skillet or wok: A large skillet or wok will give you plenty of space to stir-fry the noodles without overcrowding them. This will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking together.
- Use high heat: High heat is essential for stir-frying. This will help to quickly sear the noodles and vegetables and prevent them from becoming soggy.
- Stir-fry the noodles in batches: If you are cooking a large amount of noodles, cook them in batches. This will help to prevent them from sticking together and ensure that they cook evenly.
- Add the sauce at the end: Adding the sauce at the end of the cooking process will help to prevent it from burning.
- Garnish with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as basil, cilantro, or mint, can add a bright, flavorful touch to your rice noodle dish.
Conclusion:
Rice noodles with chile and basil is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and healthy meal. With its combination of savory, spicy, and herbaceous flavors, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give this rice noodle dish a try. You won't be disappointed!
