The best rice noodle recipe

If you’re looking for a quick 15 minute dinner, look no further!

These Sesame Ginger Noodles with bok choy will be your new favourite go-to dish. I love rice noodles because they’re naturally gluten-free, easier to digest than wheat noodles, and cook up in no time.

This recipe is bursting with bold ginger flavour, and loaded with veggie goodness from the bok choy. If you don’t have any bok choy available, you can feel free to use broccoli, or even any other green vegetable you have in your fridge. However, if you happen to find bok choy, this Ramen Noodle Stir Fry and Easy Vegetarian Laksa also feature it!

How to make 15-Minute Sesame Ginger Noodles

First, mix your sauce together in a bowl, then add it to the pot. This lets the garlic and ginger cook slightly, and lets the sauce thicken up. Next, the bok choy gets cooked up in the sauce, then the rice noodles get cooked up with everything last.

I like to boil some water to cook the rice noodles while I’m preparing the sauce and the bok choy, which makes the process for this recipe go even faster!

Rice noodles also cook really quickly, so make sure to keep an eye on them and set a timer (based on package directions) so you don’t end up overcooking your noodles. When they’re soft but still have a slight chew to them, you know they’re done! I find boiling rice noodles takes about 2-3 minutes.

    This has been a staple in our house for years and now our one year old loves it too. Also a great pregnancy meal (I find the ginger helps with nausea)! Grateful for this, thanks Jessica!

      So glad you’re loving the recipe!

  2. Leola says:

    We absolutely loved this – because it’s way tasty and quick to make! Versatile too – didn’t have scallions so we used onion powder instead, didn’t have light soy sauce so we used tamari, thought chilis would be too spicy so just gave a shake of ancho pepper flakes, used brown and black rice padthai noodles, it was still great, thanks for the recipe!

      So happy to hear you enjoyed the recipe!!

    Tried your recipe with some different noodles.

    It really is an easy recipe and what I really loved was the taste of that sauce . When it was added to the noodles…. perfect in every way.

    Oh my goodness, this recipe is amazing!! So easy and also lends itself well to adaptation based on bailable ingredients! Made mine with buckwheat noodles in place of rice noodles and cilantro in place of green onions…sooo delicious!

      So glad you enjoyed it Amanda!

  7. Joan says:

    Nice and easy with a decent amount of heat.  I added broccoli at the tail end of the noodle boil and then stir fried some orange peppers in  the sauce.  Such a versatile sauce.  It is a keeper.

      Glad you enjoyed Joan!
