Pad Thai Noodles Street-style

A Thai noodle dish that is quick and easy to prepare and traditionally enjoyed 'on the hoof'!!

Preparation:

  1. Heat a wok over a high heat. Add the oil, turn the heat to medium, add the garlic, ginger, and the prawns and stir fry until half cooked. Break in the egg and gently cook until the egg is scrambled.
  2. Immediately stir in the noodles, season with fish sauce and vinegar and continue to stir fry, constantly turning the ingredients but taking care not to break the noodles. If the noodles look too dry, then add a tablespoon of water to soften them.
  3. Stir in the garlic chives (or spring onions), carrot, bean sprouts, half the peanuts and sugar, stirring until all the ingredients are blended. Garnish with the remaining peanuts, pounded dried shrimp, a squeeze of lime and serve.

Useful tip:

Always soak your rice noodles before stir-frying or adding to a salad... more


Replace garlic chives with sliced spring onions if unavailable, and omit the dried shrimp if you like!

Nice, but comparing to other recipes on this website just nice. The only alteration I made was not adding the dried shrimp as I didnt have it, and substituting medium rice noodles for the thin ones. Also, prawns turned out a little bit overcooked so I suggest adding those towards the end of stir-frying rather than at the beginning.

Lovely vivid flavours. I added a few radishes for additional 'bite'.

Tasty and easy, can also use lemon (instead of garlic) with ginger for a zesty flavour! (Great if you go out afterwards and don't want to reek of garlic!)

This was fab - made a slight change to the recipe by omitting the peanuts as I'm allergic to them, but it was delicious, really easy and everyone liked it - highly recommend this recipe.

This is authentic, tasty and I took out the nuts as I have a slight nut allergy. I love the addition of the shrimp and I will make this again but may oomph it up with some Blue Dragon Hot Chilli sauce and chilli flakes

A taste of the Orient! Bringing the authentic taste of the Far East into your kitchen with a little help from Blue Dragon, this recipe uses fresh ingredients, gorgeous colours, exotic flavours...irrestible! The salty Fish Sauce adds a delicious flavour to the food. The whole family loved it.
