Pad Thai With Bok Choy Recipes

BOK CHOY WITH THAI-STYLE DRESSING

Steps:

• Place the bok choy in a steamer set over a pan of boiling water and sprinkle over the salt.
• Cover and cook for 3-5 mins until tender, then tip into a warmed serving dish.
• Meanwhile heat a wok or large frying pan until hot. Add the oil, ginger, chili and garlic and stir fry for 1 minute.
• Add the soy sauce and fish sauce, heat through and drizzle over the bok choy to serve.

BABY BOK CHOY WITH THAI PEANUT SAUCE

Steps:

• Whisk peanut butter, soy sauce, water, Sriracha, lime juice, ginger, and garlic together for sauce and set aside so flavors can mix.
• Heat oil in a large, nonstick saute pan over medium-high heat. Sear the bok choy, cut-sides down, until they are starting to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip them over and continue to cook until browned, 2 to 3 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper.
• Place bok choy on a plate. Drizzle with the sauce and sprinkle with peanuts and cilantro.

THAI LIME CHICKEN WITH BOK CHOY

Steps:

• Heat oil in large frying pan; cook chicken in batches until cooked through.
• Meanwhile place fish sauce, lime juice (and zest), sugar, garlic and chilli in a screw-top jar and shake well.
• Boil, steam or microwave bok choy until tender; drain.
• Add lime slices to same frying pan and cook until both sides are browned.
• Divide chicken among service plates.
• The original recipe states to spoon the dressing over the chicken, and top with the onion and cilantro. I prefer to add the dressing and half the onion and cilantro to the pan and deglaze the pan for a minute or two, then spoon it onto the chicken, topping with the remainder of the onion and cilantro.
• Serve with bok choy, lime slices and jasmine rice.

CHICKEN PAD THAI

Steps:

• Mix the chicken with half the sesame oil, flour, half the soy sauce and half the ginger paste and leave to marinade as long as possible (overnight if you can).
• Combine the remainder of the soy sauce, stock cube, sherry, vinegar, tomato puree, dried chilli, water and lemon juice in a jug.
• Fry the chicken until brown then set aside.
• Stir fry the onion, mange tout, baby sweetcorn and red and yellow peppers with the rest of the sesame oil and ginger paste for 2-3 minute.
• Add half the carrot, the bamboo shoots and water chestnuts and stir fry for a further 2 minute.
• Add the chinese leaves and half the beansprouts.
• Add the sauce mix from the jug and the thai sweet chilli sauce and mix well.
• While you are stir-frying, boil the noodles in a pan of water (usually about 5 min).
• Drain the noodles and add to your stir fry and mix well.
• Serve in bowls and garnish with the remainder raw carrot and beansprouts and the coriander and peanuts.
