Drunken Cucumber Noodles Recipes

Steps:

• Make sauce: Combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Prepare noodles: In a large saute pan, heat the oil over high heat. When you see a wisp of white smoke, add the garlic and cook, stirring, until light brown.
• Add the eggs and serrano chiles and cook, stirring, until the eggs are lightly scrambled and barely set, about 1 minute.
• Add the shrimp and onion, folding constantly until the shrimp turn pink, about 1 minute.
• Add the noodles, basil, tomatoes and sauce and toss to combine for about 3 minutes. Don't be scared to scrape the bits off the bottom before they burn. Cook for 1 additional minute until the noodles are cooked and coated well. Serve hot.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, fish sauce, cornstarch and 1 teaspoon water, making sure there are no lumps. Stir in the hoisin, chili paste and sesame oil.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sauce mixture, bring to a simmer and simmer until thickened, about 1 minute. Reserve the sauce in a small bowl for later.
• Wipe out the skillet and heat over medium-high heat. Add the peanut oil and when hot, add the chicken and cook until just browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove to a plate with a slotted spoon. Add the onions, peppers and garlic and cook until just softened, about 3 minutes. Return the chicken to the skillet, stir in the sauce, tomatoes and scallions and cook for 1 minute more.
• Place the cucumber noodles in a large bowl and toss with the hot chicken mixture from the skillet directly before serving. Sprinkle with torn basil and serve.

Steps:

• Unfold the noodles and divide into four portions.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the seasoning soy sauce, oyster sauce, sweet soy sauce, sugar and vinegar; stir well and set aside.
• Mince the Thai bird chiles and garlic and add to a separate mixing bowl. Set aside.
• Heat a wok over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil and the minced garlic and chiles; stir for 10 seconds, until just golden brown. Add the chicken and cook thoroughly. Add the bell peppers, onions, cherry tomatoes and basil; cook for 1 minute. Add the noodles and stir-fry for another minute. Add the sauce and cook until the noodles turn light brown.
• Place the lettuce leaves on six serving bowls. Divide the contents of the wok among the leaves, and serve.

Steps:

• Soak rice noodles in hot water until flexible, 10 to 15 minutes. Occasionally move the noodles around to separate them. Drain the water and cover with a wet paper towel.
• Combine oyster sauce, soy sauce, Asian fish sauce, maple syrup, sugar, and water in a small bowl.
• Heat vegetable oil and sesame oil in a wok, or large frying pan, over medium-high heat. Stir-fry shallots, chile peppers, and garlic until shallots are soft, about 2 minutes. Move the mixture around the outside of the pan to create a space and add chicken. Sear for 1 minute, then combine with shallot mixture. Add Chinese broccoli stems and stir-fry until tender, about 2 minutes. Add Chinese broccoli leaves and stir-fry until wilted.
• Add drunken noodle sauce and sliced green onions and mix. Cook until sauce begins to simmer. Add soaked rice noodles and toss to coat until noodles have absorbed the sauce and are cooked through, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Stir in Thai basil leaves until wilted. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve.

Steps:

• Soak the noodles in boiling water for 10 minutes until softened. Drain and set aside.
• Heat half the oil in a wok or frying pan and fry the garlic and chiles over a medium-high heat for 1 minute, then add the baby corn and bok choy and fry for 3 to 4 minutes more until just tender. Scoop out and set aside.
• Add the rest of the oil to the pan and fry the pork over a high heat until golden. Return the baby corn and bok choy to the pan with the drained noodles, add the oyster, fish and soy sauces and sugar and stir-fry vigorously to combine. Fry until the sauce coats everything and thickens slightly. Serve with a scattering of Thai basil.
