Pad Siew, aka the best Thai Dish EVER!



Ingredients: 
1 Crown of broccoli
1 Package of rice noodles (I got the wide flat triangular shapped ones from Asia Market 99 in the North End of Burlington)
1 Tablespoon Dark Soy Sauce - also purchased at Asia Market 99
2 Tablespoons Lite soy sauce (normal soy sauce)
2 Cloves of garlic - minced
2 Tablespoons of sugar
1/2 Cup of thinly sliced pork
1 Egg

Boil a pot of water, once boiling pour the water and uncooked rice noodles into a large bowl, let sit while you prep everything else. Drain before adding to the meal. 

Cut the broccoli into small pieces, the pieces in the photo are too large and didn't quite cook enough for my liking.

Heat a large pot-pan to medium heat then add 2 tablespoons of oil, the minced garlic and the pork. When pork is almost done add the rice noodles and stir to break them up a bit. Then add dark soy sauce, lite soy sauce and sugar. Stir to coat the rice noodles with sauce.

Make a hole in the center of your noodles and break you egg into the empty space. Scramble the egg in the area until it is cooked through. Once the egg is cooked, stir the entire pot-pan to mix everything together. 

Add the broccoli and mix well. Cover to help the broccoli cook through. Once the broccoli is cooked, remove your pot-pan from the heat and serve immediately. 

I have to say that this was one of the most delicious and easy recipes that I have ever made at home, and I can't believe how much it looked exactly liked and tasted exactly like Tiny Thai!

Happy cooking!
