SHRIMP PAD THAI NOODLES RECIPE || HOW TO MAKE PAD THAI SAUCE FROM SCRATCH?

Making this DELICIOUS Pad Thai at home is EASIER than you think! Pad Thai sauce is simple to make too, you don't have to buy the bottled sauce anymore.
Shrimp Pad Thai Noodles is a dish that I love having whenever I crave for noodles. It has a lot of things going, in terms of textures and flavours; from the slight bounciness of the noodles, to the crunchy texture of the peanuts, garlic chives, beansprouts, and backed with salty, sweet, tangy and spicy flavor! They all make this dish so delicious and addictive!
Although making Pad Thai noodles requires quite a lot of ingredients, but once you gather them, the cooking process is fairly easy! For the Pad Thai sauce, it only needs three main ingredients to make: tamarind, palm sugar and fish sauce. I also added a little bit of Sriracha for colour and some spicy kick. You don't have to buy tamarind paste just to make Pad Thai.
We can make it with tamarind pulp, follow the recipe below for the best shrimp Pad Thai you can make at home!
INGREDIENTS (2 servings)
100g dried rice noodles for Pad Thai
Shrimp, as much as you like
1.5 cup beansprouts
3-4 garlic chives
50g firm pressed tofu
2 eggs
1 medium shallot
2 garlic cloves
2 tbs shredded sweet preserved radish
1.5 tbs dried shrimps
2 tbs freshly roasted peanuts, skinned
1 lime
Chili flakes to taste
Sauce ingredients:
100 ml hot water
50g tamarind pulp (about 2.5 tbs)
40g palm sugar (about 3.5 tbs after shaving)
2.5 tbs fish sauce
Optional: 1/2 tbs Sriracha, for color and extra spice
TIPS:
- Choose a wider type of noodle, it has better bite and less likely to break
- Add a little bit more water to help cooking the noodles if needed
- Chopping the dried shrimp will bring out more of its flavor, but they stick on the noodles and may be tiring to chew after a while.
- If you plan to add more noodles or more ingredients, make more sauce, otherwise it will be pretty bland.
- Always taste and adjust, since different brands of tamarind paste, fish sauce, palm sugar have very different level of salt/acid/sweetness.
- There are 2 types of Thai preserved radish: salty, and sweet. Just check the label carefully.
- For palm sugar, we need the light golden one, not the darker version.
STEPS:
1. Preparing Pad Thai sauce:
- Soak tamarind pulp in hot water. Stir and let sit for 20 mins. Strain and set aside.
- Shave palm sugar disk, add to a sauce pan under low heat, stir.
- When it is slightly caramelized, add tamarind mixture, continue to stir until dissolved then turn off the heat. Add fish sauce, mix and set aside.
- Taste: a balance of sweet, sour, and salty.
2. Making Pad Thai:
- Soak dried noodle in cold water for at least 1 hour
- Chop chives and tofu into 4cm length sticks
- Roughly chop shallot, finely mince garlic
- Finely chop sweet preserved radish.
- Crush peanuts into medium chunks
- Cut some lime wedges
- In a large pan under medium heat, add 3 tbs of oil, fry shrimp until cooked, set aside.
- Add shallot and garlic, fry until fragrant then add tofu, dried shrimp and preserved radish.
- Add drained rice noodle and a little bit of water. Cook until soft then add sauce and mix.
- Push the noodles to one side, add oil, crack 2 eggs
- Break the yolks, spread them out and move the noodles on top of the eggs. Mix well.
- Turn off the heat, add chives and beansprouts. Mix and let them cook in the remaining heat.
- Add crushed peanuts, chili flakes to taste, and shrimps back.
- Serve hot, garnish with extra bean sprouts, chives, lime wedges, some chili flakes, a little bit of sugar. Enjoy!!
