Instructions
- Prepare stir-fry sauce. Mix sugar, soy sauce, and fish sauce. Keep aside.
- Prepare chili pepper by taking off the stem and slice. Use gloves for hot chilies or take care when cutting so that you don't burn your skin or eyes.
- Prepare noodles as per package instructions and keep other ingredients ready to stand by.
- Heat up a large pan or wok with the oil. It should get super hot, but it shouldn't smoke.
- Add the onion slices to the pan and the finely chopped or grated ginger and garlic. Stir, cook for a minute over high heat.
- Add baby corn and bell pepper slices to the pan and stir cook for a minute over high heat.
- Place chicken into the hot pan and cook on all sides over high heat for 2 minutes or so.
- Season with black pepper and add the fresh holy basil or Thai basil to the pan.
- Place noodles into the hot pan and pour stir-fry sauce over the noodles.
- Stir cook noodles over high heat for a minute or so or until the drunken noodles look ready.
- Serve hot and enjoy.
Equipments used:
Notes
- I use Thai Bird Eye Chili. Pick a spicy hot chili variety.
- Use flat rice noodles. I simply used pad thai noodles, which are not that broad, but if you can find broader flat rice noodles, use those instead.
