Drunkard's noodles (gueyteow pad ki mow)

2 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 tablespoons Oil
1 Garlic clove; finely chopped
2 smalls Fresh red or green chilis finely chopped
4 ounces Sen yai noodles
1 small Onion; cut into segments
1 medium Tomato; cut into segments
4 Kaffir lime leaves roughly chopped
6 Sweet basil leaves
1 teaspoon Dark soy sauce
2 tablespoons Light soy sauce
½ teaspoon Sugar
1 small Sweet red or green pepper finely chopped

Directions

This is a favourite hangover dish - the chilis kick-start the benumbed body while the lime leaf refreshes and clears the jaded palate.

In a wok or frying pan/skillet, heat the oil until a light haze appears. Add the garlic and chilis and fry until the garlic is golden brown. Add the noodles, stir, add the remaining ingredients and stir well until the peppers begin to cook but are still al dente. Turn on to a dish.
