Mung bean Vermicelli












































Have you ever seen these tiny thin noodles in the store? Usually it comes in a small pack.

I picked some up once and upon reading the ingredients realized it wasn't rice which I originally thought but mung beans.. now how does a mung bean become a noodle?

Who knows but it should be healthier than rice, right?!

So I thought to give it a try... here I boiled it briefly and topped it with a fast stir fry of baby bok choy and shredded carrots and shrimps (marinaded in garlic and ginger, soy sauce and sesame oil then quickly browned until they turn pink)

Truly delicious!
