Thai Basil Noodles

rice noodles

brown sugar ((dissolved in 1 tablespoon hot water))

soy sauce

fish sauce ((or vegan fish sauce))

oyster sauce ((or vegetarian oyster sauce))

neutral oil

garlic ((sliced))

scallions

1-3 Thai red chili peppers ((optional, chopped))

bell pepper ((any color, thinly sliced))

Thai basil leaves

Bring a pot of water to a boil for the noodles. We find that package cooking instructions can be inconsistent, so check the noodles often until they’re al dente (cooked through but still firm and chewy). For our noodles, total cook time was about 5 minutes. Drain them in a colander, and rinse in cold water.

Stir together the dissolved brown sugar mixture, Thai thin soy sauce, fish sauce, and oyster sauce in a small bowl.

Heat your wok until it’s close to smoking, and spread 2 tablespoons of oil around the perimeter of the wok. Add the garlic, white parts of the scallion, Thai chilies, and bell pepper. Stir-fry for 30 seconds.

Add the rice noodles. Use a scooping motion to mix everything for another minute until the noodles warm up.

Next, add the prepared sauce mixture and stir-fry at the highest heat for about 1 minute until the noodles are uniform in color. Take care to use your metal spatula to scrape the bottom of the wok to prevent sticking.

Add the Thai basil and the green parts of the scallions, and stir-fry just until the leaves are wilted. Serve!

Wow, this was packed with flavor! Even though it says it serves 4, my wife and ate probably 80% of it for dinner. This might be my favorite recipe I've tried from Woks of Life so far.

Another wonderful recipe with Thai basil. It's become my favorite herb to grow in the summer, and every recipe I find becomes a permanent part of the menu.

Yes any basil will indeed work in a pinch. I have done this many times. Thai basil is different, but it is subtle. The key to the basil is not to add it too soon or it will lose most its flavor from cooking too much.

I can not wait for my Thai basil in my garden. I have not tried this recipe but cook a lot of Thai food and I know it's going to be good by the ingredients and your past recipes
