Shrimp Pad Thai



I changed the recipe around some.  Instead of using rice noodles to used Japanese sobe buckwheat noodles add assorted other ingredients.

Shrimp Pad Thai

6 oz Japanese sobe noodles
1 lb cleaned, peeled and deveined shrimp
2 tbsp sesame oil
Small onion
3 tsps. minced garlic
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tbsp lime juice
¼ cup rice wine vinegar
2 tbsp fish sauce
Brewed soy sauce
Salt and pepper
¼ to ½ cup of peanut sauce
2 eggs scrambled and chopped
Peanuts chopped
4 – 5 scallions chopped
Sriracha hot chili sauce (as little or as much as you like)

Boil the noodles while preparing the following:

Cook the shrimp in 1 tbsp sesame oil until done, remove.  Simmer the onion and garlic in the other 1 tbsp of sesame oil for 5 min.  and the next 7 ingredients and cook for an additional 5 min on simmer. 

Bring the cooked shrimp back to the pot and simmer.

Drain the noodles and mix the above in a large bowl, add the scrambled eggs  There you have it.

Top with chopped scallions and chopped peanuts.  Add sriracha.
