Soak rice noodles in hot water for about 5 minutes until they soften.

Drain and rinse the noodles under cold water to stop the cooking process.

Shred the cabbage, carrots, and cucumber into thin strips using a knife.

In a large bowl, combine the soaked noodles, shredded cabbage, carrots, cucumber, and bean sprouts.

In a separate bowl, whisk together fish sauce, lime juice, sugar, chili flakes, and minced garlic.

Pour the dressing over the noodle mixture and toss everything together to combine evenly.

Add chopped peanuts, sliced scallions, and chopped cilantro to the mixture, and mix gently.

Taste the mixture and adjust the seasoning with salt or more lime juice if needed.

Serve the Atho chilled or at room temperature.
