Directions for Thai crispy - fried noodles recipe:

1. Place the vermicelli in a bowl of hot water for 1 minute; drain and allow to dry for 20 minutes. Heat the oil in a wok, add the tofu in two batches and cook for 1 minute or until golden and crisp. Remove from the wok and leave to drain.

2 minutes or until golden brown. Add the vinegar, fish sauce, brown sugar, chili sauce and chillies and stir until the mixture comes to the boil.
