Steps

1. Preheat Oven

2. Chop the gai lan

Trim off about 1/2 inch of the gai lan stem and discard. Chop the gai lan into roughly 1/2 inch segments.

3. Slice the carrot

Slice the carrot thinly on the bias.

4. Julienne the carrot

Shingle the sliced carrots and cut into julienne.

5. Separate the noodles

Fresh rice noodles should be soft and pliable. But if they have been refrigerated too long, they will harden. You will need to separate the noodles into smaller sections.

Brush 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil on the perforated pan (or sheet pan). Place the noodles on the greased perforated pan and add the vegetables on top.
