Ingredients
- rice noodles ryżowy szeroki - 200 g
- minced pork mielone z łopatki wieprzowej - 300 g
- spring onion dymka - 3 pieces
- garlic - 3 cloves
- red chili pepper - 1 piece
- soy sauce sojowy jasny - 2 tablespoons
- oyster sauce ostrygowy - 1.5 tablespoons
- sugar trzcinowy - 1 teaspoon
- rice vinegar or lime juice ryżowy lub sok z limonki - 1 tablespoon
- fresh Thai basil or regular basil - 2 handfuls
- oil roślinny - 2 tablespoons
- water - 3 tablespoons
Main Ingredient:
pork
Preparation
- Pour very hot but not boiling water over the rice noodles and leave for 10–15 minutes, until they soften but are still slightly springy. Drain and rinse with cold water to prevent sticking.
- In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar and rice vinegar or lime juice. Add 3 tablespoons of water and set aside.
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan or wok over high heat. Add the white part of the spring onion, garlic and chili. Fry for 1–2 minutes, stirring, until very fragrant but not browned.
- Add the minced pork, breaking it up with a spatula so no large lumps form. Fry for 5–6 minutes over fairly high heat, until the meat is well cooked and lightly browned in places.
- Add the drained rice noodles. Pour in the prepared sauce and stir-fry quickly for 2–3 minutes, until the noodles absorb the sauce and become glossy.
- Add the green part of the spring onion and the basil leaves. Stir for about 1 more minute, until the basil just wilts and releases its aroma.
- Taste and, if needed, season with extra soy sauce or a little lime juice. Serve immediately while the dish is hot.
