SHRIMP PAD THAI



Shrimp Pad Thai image

This take on the popular Thai noodle dish takes several liberties when it comes to ingredients-there's no egg or tamarind-but its jumble of shrimp, tofu, bean sprouts and peanuts delivers tons of taste and texture.

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

8 ounces flat Thai rice noodles
1/4 cup fish sauce
1/4 cup raw or turbinado sugar
1 to 2 tablespoons hot Asian chili sauce (sambal oelek or sriracha)
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice, plus lime wedges for garnish
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 pound large shrimp, butterflied with the shells on
4 large cloves garlic, chopped
1 12-ounce package extra-firm tofu, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
6 radishes, cut into thin strips
4 scallions, halved lengthwise and cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 cup roasted salted peanuts, coarsely chopped
2 cups bean sprouts
2 jalapeno peppers (red and green), seeded and thinly sliced into strips

Steps:

  • Soak the noodles in a bowl of warm water until soft enough to separate, about 10 minutes. Mix the fish sauce, sugar, chili sauce and lime juice in a separate bowl. When the noodles are soft, drain and return to the bowl. Put the bowls and other ingredients next to the stove (this dish cooks quickly).
  • Heat a wok or large skillet over high heat until very hot. Add the vegetable oil, then add the shrimp and stir-fry until pink, about 2 minutes. Transfer the shrimp to a bowl using a slotted spoon; leave the oil in the pan. Add the garlic and tofu to the pan; stir-fry until just golden. Add the noodles and 1/4 cup fish-sauce mixture; stir-fry until the noodles absorb the sauce, about 3 minutes. Add up to 1/4 cup water if the noodles seem dry, but don't let them become mushy.
  • Add the radishes, scallions and 1/4 cup peanuts; toss to combine. Stir in the remaining fish-sauce mixture. Taste and adjust seasoning (you can add more water, lime juice or fish sauce).
  • Return the shrimp to the pan and heat through, about 2 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a platter; top with bean sprouts, jalapenos and the remaining 1/4 cup peanuts. Serve with lime wedges.

THE BEST SHRIMP PAD THAI



The Best Shrimp Pad Thai image

Just like your favorite Thai takeout-but better. In Thailand, you'll find street vendors whipping up this noodle dish to order from scratch. There are numerous variations of the ingredients used to achieve the perfect sweet, sour and umami noodle dish. We've chosen to use sriracha in our version for its warming heat and sweetness. It also adds a nice color. In quick-cooking stir-fry dishes, it's imperative to have all your ingredients prepped and ready-to-go before you start cooking.

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

5 ounces flat rice stick noodles
3 tablespoons fish sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons tamarind concentrate or tamarind paste (see Cook's Note)
1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice, plus more lime wedges for serving
1 to 3 tablespoons sriracha, depending on the desired heat level
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/4 cup cubed extra-firm tofu (1-by-1/2-inch cubes)
12 medium peeled and deveined shrimp (about 5 ounces)
1 shallot, thinly sliced
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1/2 red bell pepper, cut into thin strips
3 thin scallions, cut diagonally into 1-inch pieces (halved legthwise if large)
1 cup mung bean sprouts
1/4 cup roasted peanuts, chopped
1/4 cup cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Cook the noodles according to package instructions and set aside.
  • Stir together the fish sauce, brown sugar, tamarind concentrate, lime juice and sriracha in a small bowl until well combined.
  • Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the tofu and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Push the tofu to the side, allowing the excess oil to drip down into the middle of the skillet. Add the shrimp and shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are opaque and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Push to the side with the tofu, allowing the excess oil to drip down into the middle of the skillet. Add beaten egg to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally and chopping to break up, until cooked through, about 30 seconds. Push the egg to the side with the tofu and shrimp. Add the peppers to the skillet and cook just to soften slightly, about 2 minutes. Add the noodles, scallions, bean sprouts and sauce to the skillet. Incorporate the tofu, shrimp and egg into the ingredients and stir fry, coating the ingredients with the sauce and simmering to thicken, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Transfer the stir-fry to a serving dish and top with chopped peanuts and cilantro leaves. Serve immediately with lime wedges.

SHRIMP PAD THAI

Made with easy-to-find ingredients, this shrimp pad thai tastes just like the one at your favorite Thai restaurant.

Provided by Jennifer Segal

Categories     Dinner

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 19

8 ounces flat rice noodles (linguini or fettuccini width)
2 large eggs
Vegetable oil
5 tablespoons fish sauce
2 tablespoons soy sauce (use gluten-free if needed)
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice, from 1 lime
1 tablespoon creamy peanut butter
3 tablespoons sugar
½ teaspoon dried red chili flakes
4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, finely chopped
1 pound large (31/35) shrimp, peeled and deveined, thawed if frozen
Salt
⅔ pound (10 oz.) 1-inch broccoli florets
4 green onions, light and dark green parts, chopped into 1-inch pieces
1 cup fresh bean sprouts, plus more for garnish if desired
¼ cup coarsely chopped dry roasted peanuts
½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
Lime wedges, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Bring 6 cups water to a boil in a large pot. Off the heat, add the noodles. Let sit, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until softened but still al dente, 5-20 minutes. (Note that the time varies greatly depending on the type of noodle and brand. The noodles I use -- Thai Kitchen Stir Fry Noodles -- take 20 minutes, even though it says 8-10 minutes on the package). Drain and rinse well with cold water. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the fish sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, peanut butter, sugar and dried chili flakes. Set aside.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large nonstick pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add the garlic, ginger and shrimp; season with ¼ teaspoon salt and cook, stirring constantly, until the shrimp are pink and cooked through, a few minutes. Transfer the shrimp, garlic and ginger to a large bowl, using a rubber spatula to scrape the pan clean.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of oil to the hot pan. Add the broccoli, ¼ cup of water and ¼ teaspoon salt; cook, stirring constantly, until the broccoli is cooked through, 3-4 minutes. Transfer the cooked broccoli to the bowl with the shrimp.
  • Add 1 teaspoon of oil to the hot pan. Add the beaten eggs and scramble until cooked through, 1-2 minutes. Add to the bowl with the shrimp and broccoli.
  • Add 4 tablespoons oil to the hot pan. Add the drained noodles to the pan, along with the fish sauce mixture. Cook, tossing the noodles gently so as not to break them, until perfectly cooked, a few minutes. Add the shrimp, broccoli and eggs to the pan, along with the green onions; toss gently to combine, cooking until everything is warmed through. Right before serving, sprinkle the bean sprouts, peanuts and cilantro over top and toss to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Transfer to a serving platter and serve with lime wedges and bean sprouts, if desired.

SHRIMP PAD THAI FOR FOUR

Provided by Nancie McDermott

Categories     Stir-Fry     Quick & Easy     Dinner     Shrimp     Noodle     Pescatarian     Dairy Free     Tree Nut Free     Soy Free

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 27

For the seasoning sauce:
1/3 cup water
4 teaspoons prepared tamarind paste, preferably unsweetened, such as Neera's or Rani brands*
1/3 cup palm sugar or packed dark brown sugar
1/3 cup Asian fish sauce (also called nam pla or nuoc mam)
1/4 teaspoon salt
For serving:
4 1/2 ounces (about 1 1/2 cups) fresh mung bean sprouts
2 limes, each cut into 6 wedges
1/4 cup salted dry-roasted peanuts, coarsely chopped
1/3 cup Asian fish sauce (also called nam pla or nuoc mam)
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup crushed red pepper
For the rice noodles:
Boiling water for soaking noodles
12 ounces dried flat rice noodles (slender linguine-width; sometimes called pad thai noodles or stir-fry noodles)
For stir-frying the pad thai:
2 tablespoons chopped garlic (about 4 large cloves)
2 tablespoons chopped shallots or onion
12 ounces peeled and deveined small or medium shrimp, patted dry
3 large eggs, beaten well
4 1/2 ounces (about 1 1/2 cups) fresh mung bean sprouts
2 bunches scallions, greens only, cut into 1-inch pieces (about 1 cup)
1/2 cup salted dry-roasted peanuts, coarsely chopped
5 tablespoons vegetable oil
*Tamarind paste tends to be a South Asian product; it usually comes in a jar and is available in many supermarkets. Its smooth texture makes it easier and faster to use than the traditional Thai blocks of tamarind pulp that include the fruit's seeds and fibers. Read the label carefully to see if the tamarind paste is sweetened or not; if the jar you purchase contains a sweetener, just use less sugar in your seasoning sauce.
Equipment: Large wok (preferably a 14-inch flat-bottom carbon-steel wok); large metal spatula or slotted spoon; tongs; small bowls or ramekins for assembling ingredients; colander for draining rice noodles

Steps:

  • Make the seasoning sauce:
  • In a medium bowl, combine the water, tamarind paste, palm or dark brown sugar, fish sauce, and salt and stir until the sugar is dissolved.
  • Assemble the ingredients for serving:
  • Place the bean sprouts, limes, and peanuts each in their own small bowl and arrange near the stove. Place the fish sauce, granulated sugar, and crushed red pepper each in their own small bowl and arrange on the dining table.
  • Soften the rice noodles:
  • Bring a 5-quart saucepan of water to a full, rolling boil. Remove it from the heat and immediately add the rice noodles, making sure they are fully submerged in the water. Let the noodles soak for exactly 3 minutes (use a timer), occasionally lifting them up and pulling them apart as necessary with tongs or a long fork to keep the noodles separate and help them soften evenly. Drain the noodles in a large colander and rinse them under cold running water. (If the noodles become sticky and clumped together while standing, rinse them briefly under cold water just before cooking, so that they return to their slippery, firm, toss-able state.)
  • Stir-fry the pad thai:
  • In a small bowl combine the garlic and shallots. Place the shrimp, beaten eggs, bean sprouts, scallion greens, and peanuts each in their own bowl and arrange near the stove. Have ready 1 clean medium bowl for the cooked shrimp and eggs, and arrange a platter for serving near the stove.
  • Heat a large wok over high heat until hot but not smoking. Add 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil and swirl to coat the pan. (If at any point during cooking the oil starts smoking, lower the heat.) When the oil is hot, scatter in the shrimp. Cook undisturbed until the shrimp begin to change color and firm up, about 30 seconds. Toss well then continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the shrimp are pink, firm and just cooked through, about 30 seconds longer. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the shrimp to the clean bowl.
  • Add the eggs and swirl the pan to spread them into a thin layer. Cook the eggs, lifting the sides and tilting the pan to allow the uncooked eggs to pour underneath as you do when making an omelet, until the eggs are mostly set, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and use the slotted spoon to quickly cut the eggs into bite-size pieces then add them to the bowl of shrimp.
  • Place the wok over high heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil, and swirl to coat the pan. Add the garlic and shallots and stir-fry until fragrant, about 5 seconds. Scatter in the softened rice noodles, and using tongs, evenly spread the noodles out across the pan, like a net. Let them cook undisturbed for 15 seconds then scoop them in toward the center. Toss the noodles gently then spread them out again. Pour about 1/3 of the seasoning sauce around the edges of the pan, and continue stir-frying the noodles in the same manner, spreading them out and letting them cook undisturbed occasionally, until most of the sauce is absorbed, about 30 seconds more.
  • Add another third of the sauce and continue to stir-fry in the same manner until most of the sauce is absorbed and the noodles are just tender but not mushy, about 30 seconds. Test a noodle or two: If they are too firm, add 2 to 4 tablespoons of water around the edge of the pan, and continue stir-frying until they are just tender and evenly coated with the sauce.
  • Return the shrimp and eggs to the pan, along with any juices collected in the bottom of the bowl, and toss to incorporate them into the noodles. Add the remaining third of the seasoning sauce, along with the bean sprouts, scallion greens, and chopped peanuts, and cook, tossing, until they are mixed in and barely heated, about 30 seconds.
  • To serve:
  • Quickly transfer the noodles onto the platter, mounding them at one end. Mound the reserved bean sprouts next to the noodles, and arrange the reserved lime wedges next to the bean sprouts. Sprinkle the peanuts on the noodles in a stripe next to the bean sprouts. Serve hot with the small bowls of fish sauce, sugar, and crushed red pepper so that guests can flavor their portions to taste.

Find already prepared fermented soy beans then prep time is only about 15 minutes.This recipe can be used to make the authentic and classic Thai street food dish of pad thai with shrimp which you can easily swap out for the protein of your choice.

Provided by Phasinee Doddeo

Categories     Main Course

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 18

4 Dried Spur Chili (Cut into small pieces)
4 Shallots (Peeled & chopped)
1½ tbsp Fermented Soy Beans
3 tbsp Refined Coconut or Pure Virgin Olive Oil (Use vegetable oil if that is all you have)
½ cup Tamarind Paste
1 cup Palm sugar
½ cup Fish sauce
1 oz **Dry Pad Thai Rice Noodles (**Available gluten free and vegan)
1 cup Garlic Chives
2 cups Bean Sprouts
6 oz Firm Tofu
4 Eggs
1 cup Oil for stir frying
16 Large Shrimp (Peeled and deveined)
4 Fresh Garlic Chives
4 slices Lime
2 cups Bean Sprouts
4 tbsp Crushed Dry Roasted Peanuts

Steps:

  • Cut the dried chili into 1-inch pieces and soak in drinking water enough to cover the chili. Soak for about half an hour.
  • Peel the shallots and chop up for processing.
  • Add the cooking oil, dried chili together with the water used for soaking, soybeans, and shallots into a small blender and blend until you have a rough paste. You are looking to have small pieces of the ingredients visible rather than a completely smooth paste.
  • Add tamarind paste, palm sugar and fish sauce, into a small saucepan. Simmer together, mixing until the sugar has dissolved. Set aside to cool slightly.
  • Soak the dried noodles in plain water at room temperature for about 5 minutes or so to loosen.Wash and cut the chives into 1-inch or so lengths. Wash the bean sprouts and remove any black husks, mix with the chives and set aside.
  • Wash and dry the tofu. Cut into slices off the slab about the thickness of your little finger. You will have stips the thickness and length of the block about 1/4-inch thick. Slice again across the width lengthwise into two. Cut these thin strips of tofu again into 1-inch long, bite-sized, pieces. Watch the video if you are unsure.
  • Work in 1-2 portion size batches to stir fry.Stir-fry the tofu until light yellow color to remove the sour taste you would otherwise get. Add one egg, immediately breaking the yolk and gently spreading out over the tofu and as the egg just begins to set add the noodles so they blend with the unset egg. Do not scramble the egg together - watch the video if you need visualization of this.As soon as the noodles are softened then add one Tablespoon of Pad Thai Chili Paste and three to four tablespoons of Pad Thai Sauce.

SHRIMP PAD THAI



Shrimp Pad Thai image

Provided by Bobby Flay

Categories     main-dish

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 29

3 tablespoons tamarind pulp
1 cup boiling water
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
3 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
1/4 cup fresh Thai basil leaves
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup canola oil
1 pound shrimp (21-25) size, shelled and deveined
12 ounces dried flat rice noodles (1/4-inch wide; sometimes called pad Thai or banh pho)
3 tablespoons tamarind (from a pliable block)
1 cup boiling water
1/2 cup light soy sauce
1/4 cup packed Muscavado light brown sugar
2 tablespoons hot sauce (recommended: Sriracha)
1 1/2 cups peanut or vegetable oil
4 large shallots, sliced crosswise into 1/4-inch thick slices
1 (14 to 16-ounce) package firm tofu, rinsed, patted dry and cut into 1-inch cubes
4 large eggs
1/4 teaspoons salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon water
1 bunch scallions, green and pale green parts, cut into 2-inch pieces
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 cups bean sprouts (1/4 pound)
Thai basil leaves
Cilantro leaves
1/2 cup roasted peanuts, coarsely chopped
Lime wedges

Steps:

  • Place tamarind in a bowl, cover with the boiling water and let sit until softened. Press the pulp through a sieve into a bowl and discard seeds and solids.
  • Combine orange juice, tamarind pulp, vinegar, honey, basil and salt and pepper in a blender and blend until smooth. Strain the mixture through a mesh strainer. Return to the blender, with the motor running, slowly add 6 tablespoons of the oil and blend until emulsified.
  • Heat remaining 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large nonstick saute pan over high heat. Season shrimp on both sides with salt and pepper and add to the pan. Stir in the tamarind glaze, turn the shrimp over and continue cooking until shrimp is cooked through and glazed.
  • Soak noodles in a large bowl of warm water until softened but not overly soft, 25 to 30 minutes. Drain well in a colander and cover with a dampened paper towel.
  • Place the tamarind in a bowl and cover with the boiling water, let sit until soft, about 10 minutes. Force the mixture through a sieve (including the water) into a bowl, discarding seeds and fibers. Add soy sauce, brown sugar, and hot sauce to the tamarind, stirring until sugar has dissolved, set aside.
  • Heat the oil in a wok or a large saute pan over medium heat until hot, then fry half of the shallots over medium-low heat, stirring frequently, until golden brown, 8 to 12 minutes. Remove the shallots with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels.
  • Reheat shallot oil in wok over high heat until hot. Fry tofu in 1 layer, gently turning occasionally, until golden, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer tofu to paper towels using a slotted spoon. Transfer the frying oil to a heatproof glass and reserve.
  • Lightly beat eggs with 1/4 teaspoon salt, pepper and a tablespoon of water. Heat 2 tablespoons of the shallot oil in a wok or saute pan over high heat until it shimmers. Add eggs and swirl to coat the side of the wok, then cook, stirring gently with a spatula, until cooked through. Break into chunks with spatula and transfer to a plate.
  • Heat wok over medium heat, add 6 tablespoons of the shallot oil, then swirl to coat side of wok. Stir-fry scallions, garlic, and remaining uncooked shallots until softened, about 1 minute.
  • Add noodles and stir-fry over medium for about 2 minutes. Add tofu, bean sprouts, and 1 1/2 cups sauce and simmer, turning noodles over to absorb sauce evenly, until noodles are tender, about 2 minutes. Stir in additional sauce, if desired, then stir in the eggs. Transfer to a large shallow serving dish and top with the shrimp, crispy shallots, Thai basil, cilantro and peanuts. Serve lime wedges on the side.

SHRIMP PAD THAI



Shrimp Pad Thai image

I found this recipe on FoodNetwork by Danny Boome, whom hosts their new show "Rescue Chef." Perfect balance of flavors. We have this at least once a week. It's good even without the shrimp. I double the sauce because our family likes it saucier. I also have all ingredients ready before I begin cooking.

Provided by Leslulu

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided (I use dark sesame seed oil.)
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1 tablespoon gingerroot, minced
16 large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 egg, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon brown sugar
7 ounces rice noodles, soaked in warm water for 10 to 15 minutes then drained
1/2 cup bean sprouts
3 scallions, sliced
1 cup cilantro leaf, chopped (I omitted this ingredient because my family doesn't like the taste of cilantro)
1 lime, juice and zest of

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a wok or a large frying pan.
  • Add the garlic and ginger and saute until lightly golden.
  • Add the shrimp and cook for 1 to 2 minutes until pink, tossing from time to time. Remove and set aside in a bowl.
  • Heat 1/2 tablespoon of oil in the same wok or pan and add the egg. Stir to scramble the egg into small pieces, remove and set aside with the shrimp.
  • Heat the remaining oil in the pan and add the soy sauce, fish sauce, rice wine, red pepper flakes, and brown sugar. (I put all these ingredients together in a bowl before I begin cooking). Stir briefly, add the drained noodles and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Add the bean sprouts, chopped scallions and cilantro. Mix well and continue to cook until the noodles are heated through.
  • Add the shrimp and egg back into the wok and toss with lime zest and lime juice. Season, if necessary with a little more soy sauce or fish sauce.
  • Serve on white rice or we just eat them without the rice.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 45m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 21

3 tablespoons water
2 teaspoons tamarind paste (preferably unsweetened)
3 tablespoons palm sugar or 3 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar
3 tablespoons asian fish sauce (also called nam pla or nuoc mam)
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 cup fresh mung bean sprouts (about 3 ounces)
2 limes, cut into wedges
3 tablespoons dry roasted salted peanuts, coarsely chopped
1/4 cup asian fish sauce (also called nam pla or nuoc mam)
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup crushed red pepper flakes, to taste (crushed, not powdered)
boiling water for soaking noodles
6 ounces dried flat rice noodles (slender, linguine-width, sometimes called pad thai noodles or stir-fry rice noodles)
boiling water for soaking noodles
1 tablespoon chopped shallot (can sub onion)
6 ounces shrimp, peeled deveined and patted dry
2 large eggs, beaten well
1 cup fresh mung bean sprouts (about 3 ounces)
1 bunch scallion, greens only cut into 1-inch pieces (1/2 cup)
1/3 cup dry roasted salted peanut, coarsely chopped
3 tablespoons vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Make the seasoning sauce: In a medium bowl, combine the water, tamarind paste, palm or dark brown sugar, fish sauce, and salt and stir until the sugar is dissolved.
  • Assemble the ingredients for serving:Place the bean sprouts, limes, and peanuts each in their own small bowl and arrange near the stove. Place the fish sauce, granulated sugar, and crushed red pepper each in their own small bowl and arrange on the dining table.
  • Soften the rice noodles: Bring a 3-quart saucepan of water to a full, rolling boil. Remove it from the heat and immediately add the rice noodles, making sure they are fully submerged in the water. Let the noodles soak for exactly 3 minutes (use a timer), occasionally lifting them up and pulling them apart as necessary with tongs or a long fork to keep the noodles separate and help them soften evenly. Drain the noodles in a large colander and rinse them under cold running water. (If the noodles become sticky and clumped together while standing, rinse them briefly under cold water just before cooking, so that they return to their slippery, firm, toss-able state.).
  • Stir-fry the pad thai:In a small bowl, combine the garlic and shallot. Place the shrimp, beaten eggs, bean sprouts, scallion greens, and peanuts each in their own bowl and arrange near the stove. Have ready 1 clean medium bowl for the cooked shrimp and eggs, and arrange a large plate or platter for serving near the stove.
  • Heat a 12-inch heavy, deep skillet or sauté pan or a large wok over high heat until hot but not smoking. (If at any point during cooking the oil starts smoking, lower the heat.) Add 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil and swirl to coat the pan. When the oil is hot, scatter in the shrimp. Cook undisturbed until the shrimp begin to change color and firm up, about 30 seconds. Toss well then continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the shrimp are pink, firm, and just cooked through, about 30 seconds longer. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the shrimp to the clean bowl.
  • Add the eggs and swirl the pan to spread them into a thin layer. Cook the eggs, lifting the sides and tilting the pan to allow the uncooked eggs to pour underneath as you would do with an omelet, until the eggs are mostly set, about 1 minute. Remove the pan from the heat and use the slotted spoon to quickly cut the eggs into bite-size pieces, then add them to the bowl of shrimp.
  • Place the pan over high heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil, swirling the pan to coat it evenly (if at any point during cooking the oil starts smoking, lower the heat). Add the garlic and shallot and stir-fry until fragrant, about 5 seconds. Scatter in the softened rice noodles, and, using tongs, evenly spread the noodles out across the pan, like a net. Let them cook undisturbed for 15 seconds then scoop them in toward the center. Toss the noodles gently then spread them out again. Pour about 1/3 of the seasoning sauce around the edges of the pan, and continue stir-frying the noodles in the same manner, spreading them out and letting them cook undisturbed occasionally, until most of the sauce is absorbed, about 30 seconds more.
  • Add another third of the sauce and continue to stir-fry in the same manner until most of the sauce is absorbed and the noodles are just tender but not mushy, about 30 seconds. Test a noodle or two: If they are too firm, add about 2 tablespoons of water around the edge of the pan, and continue stir-frying until they are just tender and evenly coated with the sauce.
  • Return the shrimp and eggs to the pan, along with any juices collected in the bottom of the bowl, and toss to incorporate them into the noodles. Add the remaining third of the seasoning sauce, along with the bean sprouts, scallion greens, and chopped peanuts, and cook, tossing, until they are mixed in and barely heated, about 30 seconds.
  • To serve: Quickly transfer the noodles to the platter, mounding them at one end. Mound the reserved bean sprouts next to the noodles, and arrange the reserved lime wedges next to the bean sprouts. Sprinkle the peanuts on the noodles in a stripe next to the bean sprouts. Serve hot, passing the small bowls of fish sauce, sugar, and crushed red pepper so that guests can flavor their portions to taste.

PAD THAI WITH CHICKEN AND SHRIMP



Pad Thai With Chicken and Shrimp image

PLEASE NOTE: This calls for one 1/2 pound package of noodles. Not one pound. Not a pound and a half. I'm not sure how else to write it so that it's clearer. I think this is a great Pad Thai recipe - quick and easy. It's certainly a favourite in our house. I would suggest making a double batch of the sauce, so the dish is even more flavorful. For those with milder tastes, cut back on the red pepper flakes. The recipe as is has quite a bite to it. This isn't a "authentic" Pad Thai recipe, so if that's what you are looking for, then this may not be it.

When liquid comes to a boil, press the shrimp heads with your metal spatula to bring out the flavor and color. Simmer for another 5 minutes and remove from heat. Strain the shrimp stock (about ½ cup) into a bowl and discard the heads and shells. To the bowl of stock, add sugar, tamarind paste, fish sauce, and white pepper. Mix well and set aside.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in your wok over high heat and sear the shrimp for 1 minute. Remove the shrimp immediately after they've gone opaque and are a little golden at the edges, leaving any excess oil in the wok. Set the shrimp aside.

  • Add the rice noodles to a pot of boiling water, lower the heat and boil for 3 minutes. The noodles should be softened but still firmer than al dente. They will continue to cook later. Drain and rinse well with cold water. Use kitchen shears to snip the noodles once in half. This will make it a lot easier to fry and eat them.
  • Heat a wok over high heat and add about 1 to 2 tablespoons oil (if you’re using a non-stick wok you won’t need a lot). Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the garlic and stir-fry for no longer than a minute (as it tends to burn).
  • Add the drained noodles and stir for a few seconds. Add the sauce and keep tossing the noodles until they begin to absorb some of the sauce and continue to soften (I use a non-stick wok, but if yours starts to stick, you can add more oil as needed). Add the shrimp and keep stirring until they begin to turn pink, a couple more minutes.
