preparation
1. Soak the noodles in cold water for 1 hour, then drain and set to one side.
2. Heat the oil in a wok over a high heat. Add the garlic, pepper flakes, and shrimp. Stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes, until the shrimp are just cooked.
3. Pour in the beaten eggs and stir-fry for a few seconds, until they just start to look scrambled. Lower the heat, then add the noodles, fish sauce, tamarind water, and sugar. Toss together for 1 to 2 minutes until the noodles are tender.
4. Add the dried shrimp, half the peanuts, half the green onions, half the beansprouts, and all the cilantro and toss for another minute. Serve sprinkled with the rest of the peanuts, green onions, and beansprouts.
