Pad Thai Pinoy Style

Pad Thai is a national dish of Thailand and is the counter part of our favorite stir fried noodles or commonly called as “pancit”. There are many version of pancit locally and maybe because of our love of eating pancit that we gladly accept this foreign dish. But to those not yet tasted this dish, the taste is not as we use to know with regards to stir fried noodles. It’s because it has a sweet, sour and very spicy taste which is common to Thai cuisine. But in this recipe, you can omit or lessen the chilies if you want to if you are not fond of eating spicy foods. And also, the ingredients that are not readily available is the tamarind paste and dried shrimp powder. I think you can use powdered sinigang mix as a substitute for the tamarind paste and shrimp bouillon cubes for the shrimp powder.

How to make pad thai; Soak the rice noodles in warm water for about 30 minutes or until soft. Drain and set aside. Fry the tofu on all sides until brown. Set aside. On a clean wok, heat peanut oil and stir fry the chicken slices until brown.  Set aside. On the same wok, saute garlic until fragrant, then add half of the spring onions and shrimps. Stir fry until the shrimps turns bright orange. Then add cabbage and fried tofu. Toss for about half a minute then turn off heat. Set aside. On the same wok, heat a tablespoon of oil and fry the eggs sunny side up.
