SPICY THAI NOODLE STIR FRY

Steps:

• Whisk all ingredients for the sauce together in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Cook linguini to al dente according to box instructions and drain.
• While the pasta is cooking, heat sesame and olive oils in a large (large!) skillet, preferably one with high sides. Stir in mushrooms, carrots, bell pepper, spinach and snap peas. Cook for 7-8 minutes, until somewhat softened and mushrooms have started to release their juices.
• Stir garlic, whites of the green onion, half of the cilantro, and half of the peanuts into the pan. Cook for 1 minute, until garlic is fragrant. Pour in Mirin and scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Reduce heat to low.
• Stir in pasta and sauce until coated and cook 1 more minute, letting the sauce reduce. Remove from heat.
• Top noodles with remaining peanuts, cilantro, green onion, and sesame seeds. Serve immediately.

SWEET AND SPICY THAI SHRIMP STIR FRY

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet or wok over high heat. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the shrimp and stir fry until pink but still translucent in the middle, about 2 minutes. Transfer the shrimp to a medium bowl with a slotted spoon. Add the onions and peppers to the skillet and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Return the shrimp to the skillet along with the Thai Style Sweet & Spicy Chili Cooking Sauce. Cook, stirring, until the sauce glazes the shrimp, about 1 minute. Remove the skillet from the heat, season with salt, add the lime juice and sprinkle with the herbs. Serve with rice.

SHRIMP PHAD THAI

Steps:

• Put the noodles in a medium bowl with hot water to cover. Soak until tender, about 30 minutes. Drain and set aside. Whisk the sugar with the fish sauce and vinegar in a small bowl.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat until hot and add 1 tablespoon of the peanut oil. Pour in the eggs, tilting the skillet as you pour to make a thin, even coating of egg. Cook until just set, about 45 seconds. Invert the eggs onto a cutting board and cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Set aside.
• Add another 1 tablespoon of the peanut oil to the same skillet and heat over high heat. Add the shrimp, 1/2 teaspoon of the pepper flakes, and salt, to taste. Stir-fry until the shrimp are pink and just cooked through, about 1 1/2 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
• Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons peanut oil over high heat. Add the garlic, shallots, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes and stir-fry until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Add the tofu and cook about 2 minutes more. Add the noodles and cook, tossing, until lightly coated with the garlic mixture, about 1 minute. Add the fish sauce mixture and large scallion pieces and heat through. Stir in the cooked egg and shrimp, 1 cup of the sprouts, and the 1/3 cup peanuts and toss until hot. Divide the Phad Thai among plates and top with the remaining sprouts, additional peanuts, and chopped scallions. Serve immediately with the lime wedges and Sri Racha.

THAI PEANUT NOODLE STIR-FRY

Steps:

• Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the spaghetti, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, about 12 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
• Meanwhile, whisk the cornstarch into the vegetable broth until dissolved. Whisk in the peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, sesame oil, ground ginger, and red pepper. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the sake and keep warm.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the garlic and onion; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the broccoli, carrots, red bell pepper, and sugar snap peas. Reduce heat, cover, and steam until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Toss the vegetables with the peanut sauce and pasta to serve.

SPICY THAI BASIL, CHICKEN & NOODLE STIR-FRY

Steps:

• 1. Mix sugar, lime juice and fish sauce in small bowl. Set aside. Bring large pot of water to boil. Remove from heat. Add red rice noodles, stirring to separate noodles in water. Let stand 5 to 7 minutes or until noodles are tender but firm. (If you are using Asian wheat noodles, you will need to actually cook them for 5-7 minutes rather than merely letting them soak in hot water.) Drain well. Place in serving bowl. Set aside.
• 2. Meanwhile, heat oil in large skillet or wok on medium-high heat. Add garlic and chile; stir fry 15 seconds or until fragrant. Add chicken, carrots and green onions; stir fry 3 to 5 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.
• 3. Stir in fish sauce mixture; stir fry 1 minute. Add basil (or cilantro); stir fry 30 seconds or until basil (or cilantro) is wilted. Add to noodles in bowl; toss to coat. Serve immediately.
• Tip: Thai basil has dark green leaves with purple stems and has a licorice flavor. It can be found in most Asian markets. If unavailable, substitute Italian basil.
