I have said it before, I love Thai food. I especially like the balance of salt, sweet and sour that they bring to plate. This one pot noodle dish does just that and it's healthy to boot. I used whole wheat spaghetti pasta, no oil, lean ground pork and lots of vegetables. This is one satisfying dish that you can feel great about eating.
Ingredients:
1 pound of spaghetti noodles cooked
2-3 carrots sliced or julienned
2 stalks of celery sliced thin
1 large bunch of scallions sliced
1 handful of basil chopped (Thai Basil is preferred)
3-4 cloves of garlic grated
2 Tbs of grated fresh ginger
1 pound of ground pork
Sauce:
1 cup of chicken broth (vegetable broth can be substituted for veggie version)
1/4 cup of fish sauce (soy sauce can be substituted)
2 Tbs of soy sauce
1/4 cup of sweet chili sauce (available in Asian stores)
2 Tbs of Sambal Oelek
2 Tbs of brown sugar
Brown the ground pork. I was able to brown it without any oil. If you need oil, add about 1 Tbs of canola oil before adding the pork. Once the pork is browned, add the garlic and ginger. Saute the garlic and ginger for 1-2 minutes
Now add the vegetables and stir fry for another 2-3 minutes.
Then add your sauce and allow to cook for 2-3 minutes.
Add your basil. Cook for another minute.
Add the noodles and toss with the vegetables and sauce. Allow the noodles to sit in the sauce for a few minutes to fully soak up all the flavors.
Note: When you cook the noodles, cook them shy of cooked. They will finish cooking in the sauce.
Serves 4-6 people. Enjoy.
