Gai Phad King Recipe(Thai Recipe) |
Ingredients: Serves 4-6 |
1 cup (2 oz/60 g) cloud or tree ear mushrooms (black or white fungus) ¼ cup (2 fl oz/60 ml) vegetable oil 6 cloves garlic, peeled and coarsely chopped 1 small onion, thinly sliced 12 oz (375 g) boneless, skinless chicken breasts, thinly sliced 1 cup (4 oz/125 g) loosely packed, julienned fresh ginger, preferably young ginger 1 tablespoon fish sauce 3 tablespoons oyster sauce 1 tablespoon soy sauce 1 tablespoon soybean paste 2 fresh long red chlies, cut into large pieces ½ cup (4 fl oz/125 ml) chicken broth or water 8 scallions (green onions), white part only, chopped |
Method: If using dried mushrooms, soak in water for 10 minutes; drain. Use scissors to trim hard core, then cut mushrooms into pieces. Heat oil in a wok or large, heavy frying pan over high heat and fry garlic just until it starts to brown. Immediately add onion and chicken, and stir-fry until meat is opaque on all sides, about two minutes. Add ginger and mushrooms, then fish sauce, oyster sauce, soy sauce, and soybean paste. Stir-fry for 1 minute. Add chilies and broth or water, bring to a boil, and cook for 1 minute. Stir in scallions. Transfer to a serving dish and serve. Note: If cloud or tree ear mushrooms are unavailable, substitute an equal quantity of straw mushrooms or standard mushrooms. |
