Ingredients:- 1 bunch of flat rice noodles (enough for one person)
- 1.5 teaspoon of fish sauce (you can substitute about this for about 1 teaspoon of soy sauce or salt)
- White vinegar
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon of chili sauce(the recipe calls for ground chili pepper, but I used an Asian pepper sauce since I don’t have ground chili peppers)
- 1 egg
- 1/8 of an onion sliced
- 1/8 teaspoon of sugar
- 1 heaping tablespoon of peanut butter
- Shrimp, deveined and peeled
- 2 green onions (cut into 1 inch pieces)
- Half a lime
Instructions: - Cook the noodles until they soften. Since you’re going to be frying the noodles, it’s better for it to be a little undercooked than overcooked.
- Oil and heat (on high) a non-stick frying pan. When the oil slides across the pan smoothly, toss in your minced garlic. Fry until nearly golden and the drained noodles and stir fry quickly to prevent the noodles from sticking. Add fish sauce (or whatever substitute you’re using), a splash of white vinegar, and chili sauce.
- Continue to cook the noodles, but push them to one side of the pan before cracking the egg. Scramble cook the egg thoroughly before mixing with the noodles. Cook thoroughly before placing the noodles in a dish.
- Turn the heat to medium and add the peanut butter to the same pan. Mix with sugar until the mixture softens and resembles a thick sauce before pouring over the noodles. Squeeze lime juice over noodles.
- Turn the heat to high and oil the pan again. When the oil finishes heating, add the green onions and regular onion. Cook until fragrant (stir fry for 3-5 seconds). Add the shrimp and cook together with green onions. Top the noodles.
