Resep Pad Thai Udang ( Kuetiaw ala Thailand)
Pad Thai or Phat Thai (Thai: ผัดไทย, RTGS: Phat Thai, ISO p̄hạdịthy, [pʰàt tʰāj], “fried Thai style” “Phở Xào in Vietnamese”) is a dish of stir-fried Pho noodles, a type of rice noodle, with eggs, fish sauce (Thai: น้ำปลา), tamarind juice, red chili pepper, plus any combination of bean sprouts, shrimp, chicken, hot dogs or tofu, garnished with crushed peanuts, coriander and lime, the juice of which can be added along with Thai condiments (crushed peanuts, garlic, tomato, chives, pickled turnip, coriander, lime, spicy chili oil, chili powder, vinegar, fish sauce, sugar). It is usually served with scallions and pieces of raw banana flower.
Pad Thai is of Vietnamese origin,which uses Pho noodles (Bánh Phở in Vietnamese) and Chinese ingredients. In Vietnam, it is called Phở Xào or Banh Pho Xao Sate, meaning “stir fried Pho,” a popular street food, with sate (garlic, peanuts, and chiles), mung bean sprouts, meat of some sort, scallions, and fish sauce, often served with pickled vegetables. The dish was said to be imported to the ancient Thai capital city of Ayuthaya by Viet traders, and was then altered to reflect the Thai flavor profile and assigned a name reflecting its newly acquired Thai character. Pad Thai has since become one of Thailand’s national dishes.
Instead store bought or instant pad thai sauce, i made my homemade pad thai sauce. Pad Thai sauce is very easy to make, and this simple recipe will tell you how to do it. Pad Thai noodles are becoming very popular around the world, and can easily be made at home if you have the right ingredients. The key to good pad thai sauce is tamarind. Tamarind or Asam Jawa is popular tropical fruit that comes in pods. The best way to buy tamarind is as a prepared paste (available by the jar or bottle at Asian or Indian food stores).

A Thai passed by.
Hope you don’t mind my correction but Pad Thai was not originated from Vietnam. It’s right that we use noodle stir fried technic which said to be introduced to Thai by Vietnamese. But this happened long ago before this dish was invented. For centuries. Also this dish is not from Vietnamese or Chinese.
Pad Thai was invented in TH during WW II era under Field Marshal Plak Pibulsongknram. (Not so long. Lots of my cousins lived at that time, including my parents who still alive) At that time there were lots of rice which could not be exported due to war, plus to reduced the Chinese influence, hence Thai gov. tried to invent a new dish that used these rice as ingredient. Since Thai love noodles they invented this dish which use “Sen Chan” which has rice as their main ingredient. Sen Chan or เส้นจันท์ (you can copy and paste on google for pictures) is a bit narrow and longer than normal Chinese rice noodle or Pho noodle. The name come from Chantaburi, a province in the central of TH. They also add ingredients which all can be find in Thai cuisine for example tamarind which widely use in Thai cuisine.
