I solved it by cooking the noodles in about 1/2 cup water right after I add them to the wok. I didn't use much oil at all. Just be sure to keep the noodles moving around after the water evaporates.

Or did you start with fresh noodles? 2) Did you soak them in cold water or hot? 3) How long did you soak them? 4) How much oil did you use? 5) Did you add water when you cooked them? If so, when? 6) Did you cook each portion separately? Let me know, and hopefully we can figure out what went wrong! Hi Hemant,
Here are a few ideas:

1) Are you starting with dry rice noodles, then soaking them? Or did you start with fresh noodles?

2) Did you soak them in cold water or hot?

3) How long did you soak them?

4) How much oil did you use?

5) Did you add water when you cooked them? If so, when?

6) Did you cook each portion separately?

Let me know, and hopefully we can figure out what went wrong!

I don't want to use a big load of oil. Is there any way to avoid this problem? Since your bio page says you live with a Thai family, I thought you might get some pointers from them.
