Pad see Ew
Pad see ew is a Thai noodle dish that's really quick to make. It does require a trip to your local Asian supermarket or an online shopping trip - but it's well worth it! We cook the dish on a HOT WOK, which is excellent at delivering the high temperatures that Thai wok dishes require. The Chinese broccoli in particular gets a wonderful grilled flavour in the HOT WOK. If you can't find boneless chicken thighs, buy them bone-in and bone them yourself. It takes a little longer, but the bonus is that they'll have skin on - it adds a great flavour. If you can't find Chinese broccoli (also known as alboglabra, young kale or gailan), use bok choy instead, or even broccoli. For 4 persons: 300 wide rice noodles450 g boneless chicken thighs1 handful of Chinese broccoli (about 8-10 spears)3 cloves of garlic2 eggsoil (for frying)2.5 tbsp. black soya (healthy boy brand black soy orange label***)1.5 tbsp. soya (preferably healthy boy brand thin soya)3 tbsp. water1 tbsp. palm sugar or brown sugar2 tbsp. oyster sauce1 tbsp. lime juicechilli flakes1 peanuts (salted and roasted) How to do: Bring water to the boil in a saucepan and switch off the heat. Add the rice noodles to the water and leave them there for about 10 minutes or until they are done. Then put them in a strainer and rinse them under cold water. While the rice noodles are in the water, cut the Chinese broccoli into 3 cm pieces - the stems need to cook for longer, so divide the stems and leaves into 2 piles. Chop the garlic and cut the chicken thighs into strips. Heat your wok on your HOT WOK. Add 3 tbsp. oil and when it's ready, add the stems, garlic and chicken. While it's cooking, stir together the black soya, soya, water, palm sugar, oyster sauce and lime juice. When the chicken is almost done, add the leaves and 2 eggs. Stir well to combine. Remove everything from the wok and add the soy mixture. Add the noodles to the wok and toss everything around - be careful not to break the noodles. Add the chicken mix back in and as soon as everything is well mixed, the pad see ew is ready. Serve with some chilli flakes, chopped peanuts and lime cut into wedges. The spicy, salty and sour flavours give balance to the dish. Enjoy. The recipe is developed in collaboration with Julia Olsen, Onekitchenblog.
Chicken in Sweet and Sour Sauce
Chicken in sweet and sour sauce is one of the most beloved wok classics. The delicious sweet and sour sauce perfectly complements the stir-fried chicken pieces, and the pineapple chunks add an extra juicy kick. Besides pineapple, we also use carrots, bell peppers, and spring onions, but feel free to experiment with other vegetables like zucchini, cucumber, cherry tomatoes, etc. Recipe for 4 People Ingredients 500 g chicken breast (cut into thin strips) Olive oil (for frying the chicken) 3 carrots (depending on size and preference) 1 red bell pepper (cut into thin strips) 1 bunch of spring onions (cut into thin slices) 1 can of pineapple (cut into desired size) Sweet and Sour Sauce 2 tbsp corn starch 1 dl water 2 tbsp soy sauce 2 dl pineapple juice (juice from the can) 2 tbsp white wine vinegar 2 tbsp ketchup 2 tbsp sweet chili sauce 2 tbsp sugar Instructions Preparation: Cut all the vegetables into bite-sized pieces. If using canned pineapple, save the juice for the sweet and sour sauce. Cut the chicken fillets into thin strips. Sweet and Sour Sauce: Mix the corn starch with a bit of water until smooth, ensuring there are no lumps. Add the remaining water and the rest of the sauce ingredients. The sauce will be thin but will thicken when added to the wok. Wok: Heat the wok and add oil. Stir-fry the chicken strips, ensuring they don't burn. When the chicken strips are almost done, add the vegetables and pineapple chunks. Stir-fry at high heat. Add the sweet and sour sauce and stir well. The sauce will thicken and coat the chicken strips and vegetables. Adjust the consistency with pineapple juice or water if necessary. Continue cooking for about a minute after adding the sauce. Season with a bit of salt to taste. Serving: Serve the dish with rice. Enjoy your meal!
Yellow Chicken Vegetable Curry
Yellow Chicken Vegetable Curry by HOT WOK For 4 persons: Cut approximately 500g of chicken breast into thin slices and mix in a bowl with: 4 tablespoons light soy sauce 2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce 1 tablespoon peanut oil 2 tablespoons cornstarch, and let it marinate in the refrigerator for about 1 hour. In the meantime, clean and slice vegetables of your choice into strips. For example, mushrooms, bell peppers, sugar snap peas, carrots, zucchini, and green asparagus. Broccoli also works well. Anything that tastes good is allowed. Now it's time for the wok. Heat some oil, then sear the chicken in batches until browned and set aside. Also, sear the vegetables until browned, adding some wok seasoning of your choice, or preferably seasoning with my wok in the crater. Just sear, do not overcook, and set aside. Prepare a total of three cans of coconut milk. Melt the solid part of one can of coconut milk in the wok and dissolve two tablespoons of yellow curry paste in it. Simmer over reduced heat until a nice gloss forms. Now add the remaining coconut milk; if desired, you can also replace one can of coconut milk with 400ml of chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, then add the chicken and vegetables. Only cook until the vegetables reach the desired doneness. They can still have a bit of a bite. Season with salt, pepper, and wok seasoning, and serve with rice. If desired, garnish with thinly sliced spring onions or coriander leaves. Enjoy your meal :)
