          Pad See-Ew (Thai Stir-Fry Noodles)

          Pad See-Ew ‘Thai Stir Fried Noodles’ are a simple rice noodle stir-fry that comes with rich filling morsels of juicy chicken and crunchy yu choy stems. It makes a great week night meal that is perfect for sharing. Rice noodles are smooth and tender. They are the base of most popular Thai recipes that have no European equivalent, I have been able to find, for an adequate substitute. Made from rice flour, they need only be soaked in hot water for a few minutes to become very tender. Which makes this recipe a breeze to prepare and clean up after.
