2. Cook the Rice Noodles:
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the rice noodles and cook according to the package instructions or until tender (generally about 4-6 minutes).
- Drain the noodles and rinse them under cold water to prevent them from sticking together. Set aside.
3. Blanch the Green Beans and Peas:
- In a medium pot, bring water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 2-3 minutes until they are tender yet crisp.
- In the last minute of cooking, add the peas to the pot. Drain and rinse the vegetables under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
4. Cook the Shrimps:
- In a large skillet or wok, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
- Add the shrimps to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes until they turn pink and are cooked through.
- Stir in 1 tablespoon of salsa sauce, ensuring the shrimps are evenly coated. Remove the skillet from heat.
5. Combine and Toss:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked rice noodles, blanched green beans, and peas.
- Add the cooked shrimps and any pan juices to the bowl.
- Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of fish sauce and 1 tablespoon of lime juice. Toss well to combine all ingredients.
6. Garnish and Serve:
- Chop the fresh spearmint and coriander leaves.
- Sprinkle the fresh herbs over the noodle and shrimp mixture, gently tossing to incorporate.
