Number Of Ingredients 18

hot water to cover
1 (12 ounce) package dried rice noodles
¼ cup rice vinegar
¼ cup fish sauce
½ lime, juiced
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 teaspoons white sugar
⅛ teaspoon tamarind paste
1 tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper

2 eggs, beaten
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 bunch green onions, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
