If I had to line up my favourite meals Pad Thai would rank in my top 5!
It doesn’t matter what kind, whether it be chicken or prawn, as long as its made well you just cant fault a good Pad Thai for a filling, delicious meal.
I recently tried my hand at making my own and to be honest I rather impressed myself! Having made it once before in the past and been disappointed i wasn’t sure where i went wrong. Having played with the recipe and switched out a few ingredients and made my own substitutions etc I can safely say that we will be visiting this one again!
Served with homemade Mojito this was simply a taste of the Orient at home.
INGREDIENTS
300g Rice Noodles
3 tbsp Lime Juice plus 2 whole limes cut into wedges
1 tsp Cayenne Pepper
3 tbsp Fish Sauce
3 tbsp Vegetable Oil
3 Cloves Garlic
2 Large Eggs, beaten
3 tbsp Light Brown Sugar
350g King Prawns, cooked and peeled
6 Spring Onions
200g Bean Sprouts
50g Salted Peanuts, crushed
INSTRUCTIONS
1 Place the noodles in a large heatproof bowl, pour boiling water over them and leave for 4 minutes, then drain and refresh under cold running water.
2 Put the lime juice, cayenne, sugar and fish sauce in a bowl and mix well.
3 Heat the oil in a large wok, add the garlic, prawns and spring onions, heat until warmed through.
4 Add the noodles, toss to combine.
5 Add the beaten eggs, scramble and mix with the noodles.
6 Next add the lime juice mix, beansprouts and half the peanuts.
7 Cook for a couple of minutes until warmed through. Pile into a large dish and garnish with the remaining peanuts.
8 Serve with lime wedges.
This is such a great easy recipe and a one we will go back to time and time again, I hope you enjoy it!
