Pad Thai Korat


Pad Thai Korat

This menu is well-known for Thai street food. You can easily enjoy it when you are in Thailand. Okay, let me show you how to cook it.

This picture is a sub type of Phad Thai named "Phad Thai Korat" (Korat is one province in Thailand) It's taste is more sweet than normal Phad Thai.

Ingredients


this portion can be served for 2 large dishes




1. Rice noodle ..... 200 grams
2. Pork ..... 50 grams
3. Chicken eggs ..... 2 eggs
4. Red onion ..... 1/4 cup
5. Lime (for seasoning)
6. Coconut sugar .... 1/3 cup
7. Tamarind paste .... 1/3 cup
8. chinese chives (green leaf in picture) ..... 1/4 cup
9. Bean sprout for topping (i can't find for this time) ..... 1/3 cup
10. water ..... 300 ml

  • Dissolve tamarind and coconut sugar together (i use hot water to melt it) ... the taste should be 50:50 sweet and sour
  • Cut Chinese chives into 2 inches long
  • Slice red onion


Rinse 2 table spoon of oil + dissolved tamarind into pan. After it becomes hot, put red onion.


Cook until you smell the onion aroma


Put pork


Rinse the water about 300 ml.


Wait until water boil, put noodle.


Dry noodle will absorb the soup, cook until it become soft and the water evaporate. 

put eggs



When noodle become dry, put Chinese chives
 

Cook until 2-3 minutes then turn of fire.


Topping it with lime and ground peanut


For me, i like to drop a bit ground chili :)
