Thai-Style Vegetable Rice Noodles
These noodles carry a delicious spicy punch. Seed the chiles to temper the heat.

Recipe had great elements but the lime/fish sauce dressing was too little, too mild for us. So we increased amounts and added a bit of low-sodium soy, brown sugar. Then dressed to taste.
I love Mark Bittman and this was a perfect, light, pretty simple summer dinner. Bean sprouts, snap peas, carrots -- all would work well in this.
The garlic/ginger "sauce" was great. I forgot the peanuts as I rushed out the door to a temple potluck. Nothing too special about this, but it did get good reviews.
I really liked the blend of flavors. I add a little sesame oil on top of the noodles. I also added some tofu I fried up that was part of another recipe in the same issue.
