I love making Thai food cuz my kitchen smells like a Thai kitchen, which is just intoxicating! Tonight, I made Thai Pork and Noodles and it turned out amazing! The combination of spicy, sweet and savory was just perfect! It was also a quick stir-fry so a great weeknight meal. YUM YUM!
Ingredients:
1/2 lb boneless pork chops, thinly sliced
1 Tbsp cornstarch
4 oz rice noodles
1 Tbsp lime juice
1 tsp ginger, grated
1 clove garlic, minced
1 Tbsp fish sauce
1 Tbsp packed light brown sugar
1 Tbsp vegetable oil
4 dried red chilies
1 shallot, chopped
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 Tbsp canola oil
Green onions, for garnish
Prep:
1. Mix the pork with cornstarch and let stand for 10 minutes.
2. Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
3. In a small bowl, mix together the lime juice, ginger, garlic, fish sauce and brown sugar.
4. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and stir-fry until no longer pink, 5 minutes. Remove and set aside.
5. Add the lime mixture, dried chilies and shallots and cook until softened, 5 minutes. Add the eggs and stir until almost set, 2 minutes.
6. Add the noodles and pork back. Cook, tossing with tongs, until heated through, about 2 minutes. Garnish with green onions.

Mmm, I am in such a noodle mood lately. I think it's this burst of weird cold weather. Brrr. Need lots of carbs like these lovely Thai noodles to keep me warm. ;)
