PAD THAI

This is a popular Thai street dish that you must try. I have been in and out of Thailand but have not tasted it until recently when I saw the recipe in Tes At Home. At a glance I found that it was simple to prepare and ingredients were easily found in our local market. Go through the details and tried. Marvelous !!!just like our fried Kueh Teow, the only different  was the tamarind paste and peanut, the rest were the same. Delicious and I can said that you can be addicted to it.  In Thailand they used special noodles, dried thin white noodles just like kueh teow. You have to soat it first, anyway our fresh kueh teow is good enough. I adapted the recipe from Tes At Home and follow exactly as instruction. Give it try, you sure love this.

Masuk keluar Thailand beberapa kali tetapi sekali pun tidak pernah merasa atau mencuba sajian ini sehinggalah terpandang resipi ini di blog Tes At Home. Malah ketika saya cuba mencari resipi-resipi dari negara jiran, hampir semua blog saya kunjungi menyediakan sajian ini. Rasanya tentu makanan kegemaran masyarakat Thailand. Buat sedikit kajian mengenai sajian ini, saya dapati sajian ini merupakan sajian jalanan yang merupakan favorite  masyarakat Thailand. Sekali teliti bahan dan cara membuatnya saya terus mencari bahan dan buat. memang mudah, sama seperti membuat kueh teaw goreng di Malaysia. Bezanya cuma pada air asam jawa dan kacang tanah. Memang sedap dan sekali buat pasti nak lagi.
