Thai Fried Noodles (Pad Siewe)
These flavorful Asian dishes, that are not expensive, easy to make, and pretty quick, I am starting to love. The first time I made this recipe, I was shocked how good it turned out. Caution, can be to salty if you do not use low sodium soy sauce. I sub 1 tablespoon water for 1 of regular soy sauce if I am out of low sodium. I also like to add 1 tablespoon of hot sauce to the sauce for a little heat, but it is not part of the original recipe.

Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Put noodles in a container, cover with warm water. Let soak 30 minutes. Should feel flexible, but not soft like typical pasta.
* Step 2
Slice pork very thin. I used a pork chop, about 1 inch thick. Sliced across the thinner width, about 1/8 thick.
* Step 4
Thinly slice cabbage, Napa or Chinese cabbage works the best, but regular green cabbage works, but takes a little longer to wilt. Try to keep slices about 1/4 inch wide.
* Step 5
Take your eggs, scramble them in a container. I like to mix about 1 tablespoon cream in with them, but the original recipe doesn't call for this.
* Step 6
Mix sauce ingredients together.
* Step 7
Heat about 4 tablespoons oil on medium high heat in a larger skillet, stir-fry or wok. I am using an 11 inch stir-fry in the pictures.
* Step 8
After oil is hot, add garlic, stir for about 30 seconds.
* Step 9
Add pork to oil, stir fry until just cooked. About 2-3 minutes depending on thickness.
* Step 10
Add drained noodles to pork. I usually just pull them out of the water with my hands, give a little shake, and put them in the pan.
* Step 11
Stir all the time, just use a folding motion. Cook about 3 minutes. The noodles should soften when ready. If they are too long, I will take a scissors to them in the pan, and shorten them a little "cut them".
* Step 12
Add sliced cabbage, keep stirring until wilted. Reduce heat to medium.
* Step 13
Give sauce one last stir, add to pan. Keep stirring until well mixed, about 2 minutes.
* Step 14
Remove noodle mixture from pan
* Step 15
Add 2 tablespoons oil to pan. Give eggs one last stir, add to pan.
* Step 16
Stir eggs until hallway cooked.
* Step 17
Add noodle mixture back to eggs, stir eggs through.
* Step 18
Serve, diced green onions make a good garnish
