Pad Thai Recipe, authentic Thai food

Pad Thai has been defined as “a dish from Thailand made with a type of noodles made from rice, spices, egg, vegetables and sometimes meat or seafood.”

The addition of fish sauce, tamarind juice and palm sugar provide the sweet and sour flavour.
Pad Thai is a favourite form of street food, loved by many foreign travellers, and this dish is as popular as Tom Yum Goong and traditional omelette on rice.

Formerly, pad Thai was called “Guay Tiew Pad”, which originated during World War II, when Thailand’s then leader Field Marshal Plaek Pibulsongkram had the idea for a national dish, as the country was experiencing high rice prices. Noodles were a cheaper alternative and could be used with other local ingredients. With its unique flavour, the dish become very popular, and many people ended up calling it pad Thai.

interesting, never seen any chef do Pad thai goong the same way, will give this recipe a go this afternoon with a Leo beer, thanks for the video. Update 1st Jan 2018 I have cooked this many times and in a restaurant environment it takes a bit of sorting out with the fish sauce. tamarind and palm sugar syrup but one you got the flavours right it’s amazing .. !!! Ps do not omit the dried prawn .. I put them in a spice grinder and powder them before I add ..dont forget the garlic chives like chef did in the video, they make it !!

Made this tonight. It was really good. I really like the idea of adding the fish sauce, tamarind and palm sugar syrup separately. Much easier to fine tune to ones liking. I always use to mix those ingredients prior to making pad thai. Thanks for sharing.

I really like the way this pad thai is made, thanks chief👍👍👍🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

The chef is a pro with many years experience. When following this recipe easier for beginners to mix sauce ingredients in a separate container. That way much easier to adjust the taste to your liking. And that way you can also make extra to save for later. It lasts a couple of weeks refrigerated in sealed container

Pad Thai originated from Penang Char Guay Teow. Is a Malaysian Chinese Dish. Thai people just love the Penang most famous dish Char Guay Teow so much that is why they called in Guay Teow Pad.

ผัดไทย แบบต้นฉบับไทยแท้ ๆ ใช้กระเทียมไม่ใช้หัวหอมผัด หรือน้ำตาลปี้บผสมกัน ตอนผัดปรุงรสด้วยน้ำปลา ไม่ใส่่ซอสสีราชา ตอนผัดเสร็จ จะมีถั่วงอกสดโรยอีกที ตามด้วยต้นกุยช่าย หั่นเหลือครึ่งต้น และหัวปลี กินพร้อมผัดไทย ไม่โรยหน้าด้วยผักชี แต่วัตถุดิบใน ต่างแดนคงหายาก เชพเลย Adap เท่าที่มี ใครช่วยอธิบาย ให้ชาวต่างชาติที่รักผัดไทย ได้เข้าใจ อีกที เป็น English
