Authentic Pad Thai



Ingredients:

1 cup thinly sliced pork

1 teaspoon light soy sauce

陆 (14-ounce size) package rice noodles

录 cup canola oil

2 large shallots, chopped

录 cup sweetened dried radish, chopped

录 cup cubed extra-firm tofu

录 cup fish sauce

1 cup shrimp, shelled and deveined

3 eggs

3 cups bean sprouts

陆 cup garlic chives

录 cup dried shrimp

Lime slices

Sugar

Roasted peanuts



Marinate the pork in the light soy sauce in a bowl for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Soak the rice noodles in warm water in a bowl for 20 minutes, drain.





Heat the wok over medium-high heat and add the oil. Add the shallots and fry until golden. Add the dried radish, pork and tofu and cook until the pork is crumbly and opaque, stirring constantly.





Add the noodles, sugar and fish sauce and cook until the noodles are soft. Push the noodles to the side of the wok and add the shrimp. Cook until the shrimp are light pink.





Push the shrimp to the side with the noodles and add the eggs.

Cook until the eggs are scrambled, stirring constantly.





Stir in the bean sprouts, garlic chives, and dried shrimp. Remove from the heat.





Serve with separate bowls of lime slices, dried chili flakes, fish sauce, sugar and roasted peanuts. Top each serving of noodles with equal amounts of each condiment. For example, add one teaspoon of fish sauce for each teaspoon of sugar. The chili flakes are optional but add a great spiciness to the dish. Squeeze the lime over the noodles and discard the rind. Once you鈥檝e added all the desired condiments mix well and enjoy!

The Red is actually from the curry that "some" people use. Pad Thai is like Macaroni and Cheese here in the States, everyone has thier own recipe, all good but always differentPad thai recipe?
The color is from the tamarind sauce that is used in traditional pad thai. There are kits you can buy at Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, etc which might be easier to use than finding the tamarind paste.



Here is a recipe that looks very authentic!

http://thaifoodrecipes.blogspot.com/ has 5 Pad Thai recipes. The second one is the most authentic in my opinion. I believe tamarind juice might be the source of red colouring........



Good luck......
