Quick and easy authentic shrimp Pad Thai you can find everywhere in Thailand but not outside Thailand. If you like real Thai street food, the recipe will bring you to the heart of Bangkok's food stall right into your home.
Pound dried shrimps and pickled radish.
Add sugar, tamarind paste, fish sauce, and vinegar. Mix them well.
Turn on high heat, then add canola oil on the frying pan. Put Pad Thai noodle while the oil is NOT TOO hot. Use a spatula, a ladle, or tongs to help you separate the noodle while stirring
Add fresh water shrimps, and turn them on both sides. While stir-frying, you can pour a splash of water on the noodle
When the noodle is getting soft, add an egg and keep frying until the egg and noodle are cooked. Next, add sauce mixture and stir thoroughly
After the noodle has sipped the sauce, add bean sprouts, chives, and diced fried tofu
Keep saute until bean sprouts partially cooked, chives are wilted, transfer to your plate.
To garnish, place 1 Tbsp of the crushed peanut, dry chili flakes, sugar and a piece of lime wedges on a side.
