Pad Thai (Donnas Recipe) Ingredients

14 oz Dried Thai rice noodles (up	2 c Bean sprouts (I do my own
1/2 c Veg. oil	8 Slender scallions, chopped
2 tb Chopped garlic	2 Limes, quartered (up to 3)
4 Squares very fresh tofu, cut	3 Pieces pickled radish,
4 Eggs, lightly beaten	3 tb Chili powder (with herbs,
1/4 c Soy sauce	Snow peas, optional
8 ts Sugar

Instructions for Pad Thai (Donnas Recipe)

Soak the noodles in a large bowl of hot water; change water frequently to keep it hot. Leave soaking at least 30 min. (If you use boiling water, cook very, very briefly as these noodles tend to turn to mush) In largest, preferably nonstick, pot, heat half the oil on med. heat. Add the garlic; add the beaten eggs. Stirfry, chopping egg, until eggs are lightly scrambled. Remove to a large bowl. Add tofu to the pot. Sprinkle on half the chili powder. Gently stirfry until the tofu has lost some of its moisture and chili powder coats tofu. If using snowpeas, add them during the last few minutes of tofu-cooking. Remove tofu (and pea pods) and add to the garlic-egg mixture. Add remaining oil to pan. Drain the noodles, which should be almost to al-dente texture. Add the noodles to the pan. Gently stir the noodles, exposing all sides to heat. Add the remaining chili powder, soy sauce, sugar and radish. Continue to cook and stir until well mixed and until noodles are thoroughly cooked. Add the bean sprouts, chopped scallions and garlic-egg-tofu mixture. Heat through. Serve noodles with lime wedges; squeeze juice on top of noodles. If you happen to have leftovers, it reheats very nicely. Just add more fresh lime juice. Posted to JEWISH-FOOD digest V97 #029 by Mark Cohen or Donna Himelfarb on Jan 24, 1997.
