Method
- Soak or boil the rice noodles according to the packet, then drain and rinse briefly. Peel and thinly slice the garlic, and mix the tamari, rice vinegar and maple syrup in a small bowl.
- Warm the olive oil in a large frying pan or wok over a low-medium heat. Add the garlic and cook gently for 2 to 3 minutes until just golden; watch it closely, as it burns fast.
- Stir in the chilli flakes for 20 seconds, then tip in the sauce mixture.
- Add the noodles and toss for 1 minute.
- Add the spinach in handfuls and toss until it wilts, about 1 to 2 minutes.
- Take off the heat and stir in the sesame oil.
- Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and serve.
Tip Garlic burns fast and turns bitter, so slice it evenly and keep the heat low. If it darkens past golden, start that step again.
