Drop a handful of uncooked noodles into the hot oil. They will  immediately puff up to several times their size. Turn them over and quickly fry the other  side. The entire process only takes a few seconds. Do not let the noodles brown. Drain  on paper towels. Make the syrup by combining the water and tamarind water with sugar  in a small pot. Cook over medium heat until it thickens. Prepare the seasonings by  heating 1 Tbls. vegetable oil in a wok or skillet. Add the onion and garlic and stir  fry until lightly browned. Add the tomato paste and soy sauce and stir fry a further 3  minutes. Clean the bean sprouts and remove the roots if you want. Place the noodles in a  large bowl and pour the syrup and seasonings mixture over them at once and mix  thoroughly with your hands. Add the bean sprouts, cilantro and green onions and mix  again, being careful not to break the noodles into too small pieces. Sprinkle with the red  pepper flakes if desired and serve with the lemon wedges.<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>&nbsp;<br \/>When He rained meat upon them like the dust, Even winged fowl like the sand of the seas, (Psalms 78:27)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vegetarian<\/p>\n <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/recipes4thecook.com\/vegetarian\/blog\/2026\/02\/15\/crispy-fried-noodles\/\"><span class=\"more-msg\">Continue reading &rarr;<\/span><\/a>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-10567","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-vegetarian"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/recipes4thecook.com\/vegetarian\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10567","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/recipes4thecook.com\/vegetarian\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/recipes4thecook.com\/vegetarian\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes4thecook.com\/vegetarian\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes4thecook.com\/vegetarian\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10567"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/recipes4thecook.com\/vegetarian\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10567\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/recipes4thecook.com\/vegetarian\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10567"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes4thecook.com\/vegetarian\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10567"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/recipes4thecook.com\/vegetarian\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10567"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
