Soak the rice noodles in 10 to 12 cups cold water for 30 minutes to an
hour. Drain and cover with a damp towel to retain moisture.
In a small pot combine the tomato paste, sugar, salt, chili paste, soy
sauce, vinegar and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until all
ingredients are mixed together.
Preheat a wok or skillet over medium heat. Add vegetable oil, meat and eggs
and cook until done.
Combine rice noodles and sauce mix with eggs and meat in wok or skillet and
stir until they are evenly mixed. Continue cooking, stirring frequently to
make sure noodles do not get too hard or burned. Add bean sprouts and
turnip leaves or green onions and stir to combine.
Serve with ground peanuts, fresh bean sprouts and fresh lime slices on the
side.
