I know they're not authentic, but, well...I'm lazy. And hungry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-favorite-pad-thai-recipe#post-1021549 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 18:21:55 +0000 chopsuey 1021549@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>omg pad thai sounds so good.<br /> i'm trying to lose 20lbs though!!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-favorite-pad-thai-recipe#post-1021543 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 18:21:06 +0000 Mrs. Polish 1021543@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@betsyboop: I might hug the owner the next time we get take out. Oh. My. Gosh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-favorite-pad-thai-recipe#post-1021391 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 18:00:37 +0000 betsyboop 1021391@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HabesBabe: Agree! I made it a few times but after that I got lazy and went back to take out!</p> <p>Here's the recipe (from Baipai in Bangkok):</p> <p>Ingredients:</p> <p>50g Thin rice noodle (soak in room temp water for 30min)<br /> 2 medium size prawns<br /> 1 shallot - finely chopped<br /> 10g hard tofu (bean curd) julienned 1cm long<br /> 1 salted radish - finely chopped<br /> 5g dried shrimps<br /> 3TB water/stock<br /> 1TB fish sauce<br /> 1TB Sugar (preferably palm sugar)<br /> 1TB tamarind paste<br /> 2tsp vinegar<br /> 1/4 teaspoon chili powder<br /> 1 egg<br /> 15g bean sprouts<br /> 10g chinese chives - cut into 2cm segments<br /> 2TB vegetable oil<br /> 1TB roasted peanuts, crushed<br /> 1 lime</p> <p>Cooking:</p> <p>For pad thai sauce:</p> <p>mix 1TB water, palm sugar, vinegar, fish sauce, chili powder and tamarind paste. Add more water until sauce is of a soupy consistency.</p> <p>1. On medium heat, pour half amount of oil into a wok to fry prawns. When cooked, remove prawns and set aside.<br /> 2. In the same wok with the remaining oil, add chopped shallot, tofu, salted radish, dried shrimps, and stir well.<br /> 3. Put in the noodle, water/stock, and stir fry until the noodle is softened.<br /> 4. Then quickly add the pad thai sauce and stir well.<br /> 5. Move noodle to the side of the wok, pour rest of the oil into the wok and break egg onto the oil.<br /> 6. Spread the egg to partially cook it, then bring back the noodle on top of the egg, flip over and stir to combine well.<br /> 7. Lastly, add bean sprouts, Chinese chives and stir until everything is combined.<br /> 8. Serve on a plate topped with prawns, crushed peanuts and cut lime.</p> <p>Don't you appreciate take-out pad thai so much more now??? :happy: If anyone is diligent enough to try this recipe, please post photos, I'd love to see the yummy result! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-favorite-pad-thai-recipe#post-1020965 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 16:03:28 +0000 HabesBabe 1020965@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pad thai takes a lot of work like @betsyboop said! I find that it's easier and cheaper (palm sugar? dried shrimp?) to get take out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/share-your-favorite-pad-thai-recipe#post-1020944 Thu, 15 Aug 2013 16:00:09 +0000 Mrs.Someone 1020944@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>YUM!
