When I was in Australia, (about 9years ago...) I first tried Pad Thai. It was so my type of food! Which is sour & sweet flavour.
Now I am in Paris, I cooked Pad Thai for the first time! I have checked out some videos on youtube. Surprisingly you don't cook the noodles seperately.
Essential ingredients are, I would say Fish sauce andTamarind paste.
I did Tofu, egg, bean sprouts, spring onion, onion, garlic, sugar, water.
I panicked a little when noodles weren't cooking fast.
The video below doesn't show to add water. But I would recommend to add some water after frying onions, garlics and eggs.
- Oil the pan.
- Throw some garlics & onions into the pan.
- Cook egg in the middle. Later, when it's cooked. Mix with 2.
- Add noodles, 1 cup of water.
- Check noodles if it's cooked add the sauce. ( 2 TB - tamarind, 3 TB - fish sauce, 2 TB sugar )
- Lastly, add bean spouts & spring onions. ( it's better to put at last because it can be more crunchier! )
- Garnish with lemon chunks and sprinkle with peanut crumbs.
It was So pad thai. Soooooo good.
제가 처음으로 팟타이를 먹어 본 건 약 9년전 호주였습니다. 파리에 있는 지금, 팟타이에 도전해 봤어요!
- 오일을 팬에 두룹니다.
- 양파, 마늘을 잘라 볶아요.
- 팬 한가운데에 달걀을 볶고
- 달걀이 요리가 되었으면, 양파, 마늘과 잘 섞어 또 볶습니다.
- 면을 넣고 물 한컵을 부어주세요. 그리고 소스 믹스를 넣습니다.
- 아삭아삭 씹히게 숙주와 파를 넣어 주고 조금 더 볶습니다.
- 마지막으로 레몬 덩어리와 땅콩을 부셔 뿌려주면 끝!
식초가 들어가는 줄 알았는데 히햑, 맛있어요. 정말 팟타이 '맛'이 났어요!
