This takeout staple comes home with our simple weeknight version of Pad See Ew. Pad See Ew (also spelled phat si-io, pad siew, or pad siu) is a standard item on most Thai restaurant menus. The dish consists of rice noodles stir-fried with soy sauce, thinly sliced meat, egg, and Chinese broccoli. The soy sauce stir-fry has many different permutations around Asia including chow fun from southern China and char kway teow popular in Singapore, Malaysia, and other parts of Southeast Asia. We used dried rice noodles which were available at our local grocery store and had to break them up a bit to fit in the starch pan. If you’re feeling like a trip to your local specialty foods market seek out some fresh rice noodles. Sometimes the fresh noodles will come as sheets you can cut yourself into your desired width (normally ½” – 1” thick). Fresh rice noodles should be cooked for 1 minute in the starch pan. Rice noodles are naturally gluten-free, therefore they don’t have the gluten proteins (glutenin) that help keep the noodles stretchy and flexible. Be gentle when stirring the rice noodles as they will break easier than gluten-based noodles.
