Phad Thai

Mmmm....this is a very yummy recipe. 

As a major Chinese food lover, this was a nice change.

I ended up eating the leftovers ever night until they were gone. (So I never got a good photo of the finished product in a bowl he he).

 

 

 

 

8oz rice stick noodles

2 Tbs oil

3 cloves garlic, chopped

2 tsp chopped red chillies (I used chili pepper sauce)

5oz pork, thinly sliced

3.5oz raw shrimp, chopped

1/2 bunch chives

2 Tbs fish sauce

2 Tbs lime juice

2 tsp brown sugar

2 eggs, beaten

1 cup bean sprouts

Sprigs of coriander

3 Tbs chopped roasted peanuts

Soak the rice noodles in warm water for 10 minutes.

 

 

Drain and set aside.

Heat the wok until very hot, then add the oil and swirl to coat the pan. (careful not to get the pan too hot or the garlic will burn).

When the oil is very hot, add the garlic, chili, and pork for 2 minutes.

 

Add the shrimp and stir-fry for 3 minutes.

 

Add the chives and drained noodles to the wok and cook for another minute.

 

Add the fish sauce, lime juice, sugar, and eggs.

Toss well until heated through.

Sprinkle with the bean sprouts, sprigs of fresh coriander and chopped peanuts.
