Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Cook the gluten-free rice noodles according to the package instructions, typically boiling them in a pot of salted water for 5–7 minutes until tender but chewy.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, combine the red curry paste, coconut milk, and peanut butter. Stir continuously for about 5 minutes until smooth and creamy.
  3. Gently add the cooked noodles into the skillet and toss them thoroughly in the sauce for 2–3 minutes.
  4. Incorporate any chosen vegetables and protein into the skillet, stirring evenly, and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
  5. Adjust the sauce consistency with a splash of water or broth if too thick and cook for another minute.
  6. Transfer the noodles to serving plates, garnish with chili flakes or fresh herbs, and serve immediately.
