I'm trying to cut fat, so I only used a tablespoon of butter to brown the vermicelli. I think you can just experiment with cutting the amount of butter to see how low you can go before it doesn't taste right to you...The butter adds flavor, so I wouldn't eliminate it completely. - 8/15/09

Hey, thanks so much for that great advise. I will try it to see where the perfect cut off is as not to take away from the flavor. I really appreciate it.
