Six Ingredient Pad See Ew
- 1 Tablespoon Vegetable Or Peanut Oil
- 1 clove Garlic, Minced
- 1 whole Small Shallot, Thinly Sliced
- 5 ounces, weight Fresh, Wide Rice Noodles
- 2 teaspoons Palm Sugar (substitute 1 Teaspoon White Sugar If Preferred)
- 1 Tablespoon Soy Sauce
- 20 whole Fresh Basil Leaves
- Note: The recipe serves one, but can easily be doubled.
- I dont recommend making more than 2 servings at a time as it risks crowding the wok and resulting in a giant noodle blob.
- If you cannot find or prefer not to use fresh, wide rice noodles as in the original recipe, you can easily substitute thin, dry rice noodles.
- Just substitute 2.5 oz dry rice noodles for the fresh noodles.
- Soak the dry noodles in room temperature water until they become pliable (but not tender enough to eat), 10-12 minutes before beginning the dish.
- Because the noodles are soaked in water, the dish will need to cook a few minutes longer with dry noodles than with fresh.
- 1.
- Heat oil in a wok over medium-high heat.
- Add garlic and shallot and stir, cooking just until garlic begins to turn golden, about 1 minute.
- 2.
- Add noodles to wok and stir to break apart.
- Add sugar, soy sauce and basil, stirring vigorously to coat noodles evenly in the sauce.
- When sauce is bubbling and basil is wilted, about 2 minutes, remove wok from heat.
- Serve immediately.
