Garlic Sesame Noodle Salad

1. 1

   Add water into a saucepan. Bring it to a rolling boil. Add the uncooked noodles to the saucepan. Cook for 8 minutes and stir occasionally (or follow the package instructions if they are different).

2. 2

   While the noodles are cooking, place the minced garlic, 1 teaspoon of sesame seeds and 2 teaspoons of green onion into a heatproof container or bowl. Heat a saute pan over high heat until smoky hot. Add oil and heat for 10-30 seconds until the oil is hot. Remove the pan from heat and carefully pour the oil onto the minced garlic mixture. Set aside.

3. 3

   When they are done, rinse the noodles with cold water in a colander and drain well. Place the noodles in a mixing bowl. Add the garlic-oil mixture, salt, soy sauce, and vinegar. Gently toss.

4. 4

   Garnish with the rest of the sesame seeds and green onions before serving.

   Note: If the rice noodles are cooked in advance, slightly warm them up in the microwave before adding the other ingredients.
