PAD SEE EW - THAI STIR FRIED NOODLES

Steps:

• Chinese Broccoli - trim ends, cut into 7.5cm/3" pieces. Separate leaves from stems. Cut thick stems in half vertically so they're no wider than 0.8cm / 0.3" thick.

• Cook garlic and chicken: Add garlic, cook 15 seconds. Add chicken, cook until it mostly changes from pink to white.

• Caramelise noodles: Return wok to stove, heat 2 tbsp oil over high heat until it starts smoking (HOT is key!). Add noodles and Sauce. Toss as few times as possible to disperse Sauce and make edges of noodles caramelise - about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes.

• Prep all of your ingredients before you start as this cooks very quickly.
• Have the meat strips in a small bowl.
• Heat oil and garlic in a wok or large deep skillet on about medium or medium high heat and saute for about 1 minute.
• Sprinkle the meat quickly with salt& pepper, sprinkle lightly with some soy sauce, and just a little cornstarch or flour to coat very lightly and add to the pan.
• Stir fry until almost cooked (just a few minutes- try not to overcook), then add the broccoli (if using shrimp, add with the broccoli) and stir fry another couple of minutes (it will still be rather crisp).
• Lower heat to medium, add noodles, and stir fry to heat together- about 1-2 minutes.
• Clear a spot in the middle of the pan and pour in the beaten egg- tossing quickly to scramble the egg in that spot, then mixing the cooked egg in with the rest of the ingredients.
