Method
In a large bowl, soak rice noodles in very hot water for 10 minutes. Add oil to a large skillet and heat over medium heat. Saute onion, garlic, and ginger until softened, but no browned. Add bok choy to the skillet and saute, cooking until bright green and crisp-tender. While bok choy is cooking, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, maple syrup, rice vinegar, and water in a small bowl or jar. Drain rice noodles and add them to the pan. Pour sauce over noodles and toss together with the other ingredients in the pan. Saute until noodles are cooked through and sauce is absorbed, about 5 minutes.
