BEEF PAD THAI WITH PEANUT SAUCE & ASIAN NOODLES



Beef Pad Thai With Peanut Sauce & Asian Noodles image

I took two different recipes here & combined them. However - some of both of these recipes ingredients didn't quite give enough flavor to the dish. Thus, I have experimented with some flavors I believe work very nicely here and the result is quite good indeed. My husband, (who is a very picky eater by the way), couldn't get enough.

Time 45m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 cup dry roasted peanuts
1/3 cup water
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon dark soy sauce
2 teaspoons sesame oil
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (more or less to taste)
2 tablespoons asian fish sauce (If vegetarian, use vegetarian fish sauce or regular soy sauce)
1/2 teaspoon tahini paste
1 teaspoon red chili sauce (more or less to taste)
1 teaspoon lime juice
lime zest
1 tablespoon peanut oil
1 teaspoon peeled and minced fresh ginger (you can find this in the oriental section of your grocery store) or 1 teaspoon sliced ginger in a jar (you can find this in the oriental section of your grocery store)
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 -4 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
1 cup cremini mushrooms, sliced or 1 cup shiitake mushroom
1 onion, sliced small onion, into long thin slices work best
1 lb lean beef steak, cut crosswise into 1/4 inch strips (such as sirloin tip or flank)
1/4 cup chopped dry roasted peanuts
1/4 cup chopped scallion (3-4 scallions, white & green parts)
8 ounces soba noodles, noodes or 8 ounces whole-wheat spaghetti

Steps:

  • Thai Peanut Sauce Preparation: Place the first 12 ingredients (from the peanuts to the lime zest), in a blender. Blend until sauce is smooth. If you prefer a runnier peanut sauce, add a little more water. Do a taste test for salt and spice, adding more fish sauce if not salty enough, and more chili sauce &/or red pepper flakes, if not spicy enough. If too salty, add another squeeze of fresh limejuice.
  • Beef Pad Thai Preparation: Cook the noodles according to the package directions. Drain, transfer to a large bowl, and cover with aluminum foil or plastic wrap to keep warm.
  • Heat the peanut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ginger and garlic - cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Add the sliced onions & mushrooms, stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add the beef and stir-fry another 2 minutes. Next, add the teriyaki sauce & a 1/2 cup of the Thai peanut sauce, stir all together, and simmer until the beef is cooked through, about 4-5 minutes.
  • Transfer the noodles to the beef mixture & toss to combine. Serve on individual plates topped with the peanuts and scallions. The leftover peanut sauce will keep in the refrigerator up to 4 days or in the freezer up to 3 months; thaw completely in the refrigerator or microwave for about 3 minutes on LOW before using.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help the cooking process go smoothly.
  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your dish will taste. If possible, use organic or local ingredients.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the recipe to your liking: This recipe is a starting point. Feel free to add more or less of any ingredient, or substitute ingredients that you don't have on hand.
  • Cook the noodles according to the package directions: Different types of noodles have different cooking times. Be sure to follow the directions on the package to ensure that your noodles are cooked properly.
  • Don't overcook the beef: Beef can easily become tough and chewy if it is overcooked. Cook it just until it is cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Make sure the sauce is thick enough: The sauce should be thick enough to coat the noodles and vegetables. If it is too thin, add a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water) to thicken it.
  • Serve immediately: This dish is best served hot. If you need to make it ahead of time, you can cook the noodles and beef separately and then assemble the dish just before serving.

Conclusion:

This Asian peanut beef noodles recipe is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is packed with flavor. It is made with a handful of simple ingredients and can be tailored to your liking. Whether you are a beginner cook or a seasoned pro, this recipe is sure to become a favorite.
