👨‍🍳 Instructions

Place noodles in a large bowl and cover with hot water.

Set aside until noodles are softened, about 15 minutes.

Drain and rinse thoroughly.

Heat oil in a wok over medium heat.

Cook and stir onion and garlic until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

Combine rice wine vinegar, ketchup, fish sauce, chile sauce, peanut butter, soy sauce, lime juice, sugar, red pepper flakes, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl.

Add shrimp to the wok.

Cook and stir until pink, about 4 minutes.

Add the ketchup mixture and stir.

Move all ingredients to one side to clear a small space in the pan.

Pour in eggs and cook without stirring until partially set, about 3 minutes.

Stir the drained noodles into the shrimp and egg mixture.

Add 1/2 cup peanuts, 1/4 cup bean sprouts, and carrots.

Cook and stir until noodles are heated through, about 2 minutes.

Garnish with the remaining peanuts, bean sprouts, lime wedges, green onions, and cilantro.
