EPA/DHA Omega-3: Glaucoma and Omega 3 Fats

Preparation

Bring a large pot of filtered water to a boil.
In a large bowl, cover the mung bean noodles with warm filtered water and let stand until pliable, about 5 minutes.
Drain the noodles and add to boiling water just until tender but still chewy, about 30 seconds.
Drain the noodles in a colander, rinse under cold water. Let stand in the colander.
Season the shrimp with salt and pepper.
In a medium saute pan, heat half of the oil until shimmering. Add the shrimp and cook over moderately high heat, turning once, until pink and tails curl – about 2 minutes. Transfer the shrimp to a plate and cover.
Add the remaining oil to the skillet and heat until shimmering. Stir in the scallions and ginger and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Stir in the mung bean noodles, soy sauce, vinegar, chili pepper flakes and cook until heated through, about 1 minute.
Add the shrimp and transfer to shallow serving bowls.
Serve.
