Introduction
A southern Thai variation of the classic stir-fried noodle dish, featuring thick, chewy fresh egg noodles instead of wide rice noodles. It is tossed with tender marinated pork, crunchy Chinese broccoli, eggs, and a savory-sweet sauce, finished with a signature smoky char.
Step 1
Prepare the egg noodles. If they are cold and stuck together in a block, microwave them until warm and pliable, then gently separate the strands by hand.
Step 2
Thinly slice the pork. Combine it in a bowl with 1 tbsp soy sauce and 1 tbsp water. Stir well and let it marinate until the pork fully absorbs the liquid.
Step 3
Prepare the sauce by mixing together the oyster sauce, mushroom soy sauce, fish sauce, Golden Mountain sauce, and black soy sauce in a small bowl.
Step 4
Prep the Chinese broccoli. Cut the stems into thin slices on a sharp bias, and roughly chop the leaves.
Step 5
Heat a wok or large pan over high heat. Add a splash of oil and sear the marinated pork, spreading it out in a single layer. Once browned on the bottom, toss to cook through, then remove from the pan and set aside.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
Do not pull fresh egg noodles apart when they are cold, or they will break. Heating them in the microwave softens the starch and makes them easy to separate.
Adding a tablespoon of water to the pork marinade behaves like a quick brine, keeping the pork exceptionally juicy and preventing it from drying out during high-heat stir-frying.
Unlike fresh rice noodles, egg noodles are highly durable and do not break easily, making this dish much easier and more forgiving for beginners.
Prik Nam Som (chili vinegar) is highly recommended for serving as the acidity cuts through the richness of the oiled egg noodles.
