🍜 Pad Thai
Ingredients
- 200 g flat rice noodles
- 200 g shrimp
- 2 eggs
- 100 g firm tofu
- 3 tbsp tamarind paste
- 3 tbsp fish sauce
- 3 tbsp palm sugar
- 2 handfuls bean sprouts
- Spring onion
- Crushed peanuts
- Lime
- Oil
Method
- Soak the noodles 30 min in warm water: they should be pliable but not cooked.
- Mix tamarind, fish sauce and sugar for the sauce — the sour/salty/sweet balance is what makes the dish.
- Sear the tofu and shrimp in a very hot wok, set aside.
- Push everything aside, crack in the eggs and scramble them quickly.
- Add the drained noodles and the sauce, stir-fry 2 min without stopping.
- Off the heat, add the bean sprouts and spring onion; serve with peanuts and lime.
