PAD THAI
The most famous Thai dish in America! Making a good Pad Thai takes time. There's a delicate dance with the noodles because they cook in three stages. First you soak them in warm water and they begin to absorb and soften. They first get pan-fried with all the ingredients. Be patient at this stage. Allow them to begin to yield and marry with the hot oil and other ingredients. Once they look soft enough to eat right out of the pan but slightly al dente, add the sauce to finish the cooking. My family was among the first to introduce this dish to America nearly 50 years ago and the American version differs slightly from the native one. The super bright orange was accentuated with paprika instead of the traditional addition of chili paste to give it a slight tint. And we typically finish this dish with garlic chives vs. green onions. I always say Pad Thai is like pancakes. You'll burn a few before you get the knack for it.

Steps:
- For the Pad Thai Sauce: In a small bowl, stir together the fish sauce, sugar, tamarind paste, lime juice, vinegar, paprika and chili sauce. Set aside.
- For the Pad Thai: Soak the noodles in enough warm water to cover for 1 hour.
- If using, cut the banana leaf into round shapes using an overturned bowl. Place on the serving platter and hold for plating.
- Heat a large cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add the oil and coat the skillet completely. When the skillet starts to smoke, add the garlic and cook, stirring, for 5 seconds. Add the tofu and dried shrimp and cook, stirring, until they begin to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the chicken pieces and cook, stirring, until no longer pink, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Push ingredients in the skillet to one side and let the oil settle in the center of skillet. Crack the eggs into the oil and let set until half-cooked, about 30 seconds, then lightly scramble. Combine with the remaining cooked ingredients in the skillet, scraping the bits from the bottom before they burn. Add 3 cups of the drained noodles and cook, stirring, until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Reserve the noodle soaking water.
- Add the salted turnip and shrimp. Cook until both the chicken and shrimp are at medium doneness, about 1 minute. Add the sauce and fold together until all the liquid is absorbed, about 2 minutes.
- Place half of the bean sprouts, half of the crushed peanuts and the garlic chives (or scallions) in the center of noodles, and then spoon some noodles over them to cover and let steam for 30 seconds. If the skillet seems dry, add a small amount of the noodle soaking water. Transfer to a serving plate with the banana leaf circle, and garnish with the remaining bean sprouts, peanuts and lime.

Steps:
- Get your mise completely ready to go, because this dish only takes about 5 minutes to cook.
- In a wok (of course you can use a frying pan, but it's just not the same; even those cheap stainless steel ones work better than a pan), fry the red onion in a little peanut or olive oil. Add the shrimp (or calamari, chicken, or pork). Cook for a minute. They'll continue so don't worry too much if they're still slightly opaque, and move them over to the side. Make a well in the center. Crack the egg in there and scramble with a fork till cooked. Push over to the side along with the shrimp.
- Break the noodles in half (unless your wok is the huge industrial size), and add to the center with about 1/4 cup of the stock, the fi sh sauce, tamarind sauce, palm sugar (dissolve it in a little hot water if too thick), and red chile flakes. Mix well into the noodles, leaving the shrimp and scrambled egg off to the side.
- Cook the noodles in the sauce for a few minutes, stirring lightly to ensure that they don't clump together. The noodles should be just softened-you want them nice and chewy. Taste and adjust the seasoning-and add more stock if necessary.
- Now add the bean sprouts and the scallions, stir everything together, and heat it through. Immediately turn onto large plate and top with the chopped cashews. Garnish with lime and cucumber slices.
- You now just need a pair of chopsticks and an ice cold Singha.

JET TILA'S PAD THAI
A traditional Pad Thai recipe inspired By Jet Tila's family recipe and my favorite Thai place in Charlotte, NC - Siam Garden. Perfect balance of spicy, sweet, sour, savory, and salty. Truly an umami bomb of a dish made with ingredients readily available at any super market. I did not include adjustments to spice levels, but with a dish this simple, you can add more or less chili sauce to suit your taste. This is a wonderful opportunity to add homemade chili oil!

Steps:
- Before we begin: Relax, don't get too technical with it. Follow the sauce mixture to a 'T', but the proteins and garnishes are all subject to your liking. Anyone can follow this recipe and do well. Just use your instincts, and don't get scared when that super pungent fish sauce hits the pan. The flavors will get to know one another and come together to make a stunning dish.
- Soak rice (Pad Thai) noodles according to package instruction. If you are using fresh noodles you may skip this step.
- To prepare the sauce, mix together fish sauce, tamarind concentrate, lime juice, rice vinegar, white sugar, paprika (optional - adds deep color), and chili paste until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Crush or blitz peanuts to the desired consistency. Slice the green onions in 1-2inch sections at a bias.
- Slice chicken thighs into quarter inch strips and peel shrimp.
- Crush and coarsely chop the garlic while heating skillet on high for a minute or two and coat the bottom with oil. Toss the garlic in the skillet until it is nutty and fragrant.
- Place chicken in the pan and sere until the outside has just changed to white.
- Push the chicken to one side, add a bit more oil to the vacant side, and crack the eggs on top of the oil. Resist the urge to immediately stir them, and wait for the whites to start cooking. Gently fold the eggs and chicken.
- Push the chicken and eggs to one side, add a bit more oil to the vacant side of the pan, and add shrimp to the oil. Cook the shrimp until it becomes opaque, flipping once. Toss to incorporate all ingredients.
- Drain the noodles and add them to the pan, folding all ingredients together. Cook for a minute or two until the noodles have relaxed, and then add the sauce.
- Fold all ingredients until everything is evenly coated in the sauce mixture, reduce any excess sauce, it should not be liquidly and you should no longer have a strong fish sauce smell.
- Add the bean sprouts, green onions, a couple tablespoons of peanuts, and fold a few times to lightly steam these fresh ingredients.
- (Recommended) Step back, take notice of the consistency, the noodles should be softer now and if you press a wooden spatula down, the noodles should stick a bit.
- Once you are satisfied, immediately plate and garnish with extra peanuts, green onions, lime wedge, chili paste, and/or bean sprouts. This step really depends on preference.
