Have not tried this recipe. Just looking at how they have you cook it makes me think that you would be missing out on a lot of flavor from the ingredients.
Could be good but I'd cook it a little differently.

I tried gluten free rice noodles, and they have zero taste.  I know wheat is bad, but it tastes so good.

What would you do differently?
