Stir fried spicy noodles

Cooked this spicy stir fried "pad-thai noodles" the other day. Very very simple and tasty...makes a sastisfying meal..especially for chilli maniacs such as me. The main ingredient is thai rice stick noodles ( got this from Thailand)...its sorta like hor fun...but a little thinner. So first you've gotta soak the noodles in water for about 15-20 mins. Then drain it and set aside.




Heat up oil in pan, when hot, add in garlic and onions are stir fry until fragrant. Then add in some sambal/tom yam paste..add in as much as you want =P..mix well and fry for about 1 minute.


After that, add in meat ( prawns, squid, chicken...whatever you prefer) and mix well with sambal-onion-garlic paste. If it is too dry...add in some hot water.



Once the meat is almost cooked...prawns are pink-orange and curled up...sotong has rubbery texture, chicken meat is firm....add in the noodles and mix well...add in sufficient water bit by bit until noodles become soft but do not add too much water until noodles become mushy. Taste to see if its salty enough..if not..add in some thai fish sauce and stir well again.



Tadaaa....yumzzzzz
To enhance the flavour...you could add beansprouts in the dish too or chives....and then garnish with cilantro/coriander.
