Servings: persons

1 (1 1/2 ounce) package bean thread noodles (Mung bean noodles)
1/2 cup shallot, sliced finely (small red onions)
1 lb ground chicken or 1 lb pork, cooked
2 garlic cloves, chopped finely
2 tablespoons uncooked jasmine rice (khao koor (see below)
1/2 tablespoon ground thai chili powder (or cayenne will do)
1 tablespoon red chili pepper flakes
2 1/2 tablespoons fish sauce
2 1/2 tablespoons lime juice
1/4 cup spring onion, chopped
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
1/4 cup fresh mint leaves

1
Soak bean threads in water for at least 5 minutes, then use scissors to cut it a few times into 2-3 inch pieces. Boil in water for just 2 minutes, drain, place in bowl, drizzle a small amount of vegetable oil over noodles to prevent them sticking together, and set aside. Do this while the chicken (or pork) cooks.
2
To prepare khao koor: get a skillet fairly hot, and add 2 tablespoons of uncooked jasmine rice. Keep it moving until the rice starts to turn golden brown. Remove from the heat and allow to cool. Grind to a fairly coarse powder in a mortar and pestle or coffee grinder. The powder should retain some texture and not be too fine a powder.
3
In the same skillet, cook the chicken/pork with the garlic with a small amount of oil.
4
In a large mixing bowl, add shallots, cooked chicken (or pork), khao koor, ground Thai chile powder, chili flakes, fish sauce, and lime juice. Toss gently until mixed well.
5
Add bean thread noodles, spring onion, cilantro, and toss it together a little (not too much).
6
Transfer to a dish and top with a generous amount of whole fresh mint leaves.
7
If not using the noodles, serve over rice with a side of fresh veggies, like sliced cuccumber, sliced green cabbage, raw sugar snap peas, etc.
