  Boil the noodles for 2 or 3 minutes in water until *al dente*. 
  Plunge into cold water & then drain. Spread noodles on a large
  platter & sprinkle with the chopped pineapple. Mix the SAUCE
  ingredients & pour over the noodles. Sprinkle with the green onion,
  red pepper flakes, cilantro & ginger.

  NOTE: Substitute pineapple tidbits for fresh if you want. You will
  need a large can. Garlic oil can be made by frying chopped garlic
  in oil until golden. Use, as a guideline, 1 part garlic to 4 parts
  oil. Do not strain the garlic.
