on paper. I'll try to remember to send it out after I make it tomorrow.
The peanut noodles go something like this (but I didn't write it down, so
I'll be sort of making it up and adjusting again as I go - which is how I
always cook).
1/2 package rice noodles (the kind that you actually cook in boiling water,
as opposed to the really thin ones that you just pour hot water over)
2 eggs
salt and white pepper
sesame oil
1 onion
5 cloves of garlic (or so)
1 can coconut milk
1/3 cup peanut butter (or there abouts)
2 T soy sauce
1 teaspoon chili oil
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper (the hot stuff)
1 teaspoon sate seasoning or your fav curry-type seasoning
1 red pepper, in bite size pieces
1 head broccoli, in bite size pieces
Cook the noodles in boiling water while doing the rest of the instructions.
About a minute before noodles are done, toss in the broccoli to blanch.
Heat up the sesame oil in a large skillet. In a bowl, fork beat the eggs
with salt and white pepper, to taste. Pour the eggs in the hot skillet. Cook
flat-omelet style. Remove and cut into strips.
Add a little more oil to the pan (if necessary). Saute the onions and garlic
until transparent. Add the red pepper. Saute briefly. Add coconut milk,
peanut butter, soy sauce, chili oil and spices.
You may have to adjust amounts of seasonings, and you may need to add a
little more liquid (broth or water).
When the noodles and broccoli are done, drain and mix with above saucy
mixture. Top with eggs slices (and cilantro and green onion, if you so
desire). Eat.
