Best 6 Thai Pad Pra Ram Recipes

EASY THAI PRA RAM TOFU (PEANUT BUTTER SAUCE)

Steps:

• Cut the block of tofu in half. Place each half in 2 clean paper towels one at a time and gently press/squeeze to remove excess stored liquid (without breaking up the tofu).
• Cut the tofu into 1/2-inch cubes and pan fry on medium-high heat with 1 1/2 tbsp cooking oil. Mix and turn frequently until all the water is burned off and the tofu is lightly golden brown on most sides (be sure not to burn the tofu). If you find that the tofu is sticking to the pan, add a little more oil. Set aside.
• While the tofu is cooking, continue on to prepare the peanut sauce.
• Whisk all the ingredients listed for peanut sauce, adding the warm water last. Combine with a spoon until the peanut butter is well blended.
• In a wok or large non-stick skillet, combine pan fried tofu, chopped spinach, and prepared peanut sauce. Mix together on low-medium heat for 5-10min until the spinach is slightly cooked and the tofu has time to marinate in the sauce.
• Be careful not to let the sauce simmer and start to thicken too much. You can stir in a small amount of water if needed.
• Serve hot over cooked rice, quinoa, or fresh spinach for a lighter version.

THAI PAD PRA RAM

Steps:

• Heat a slightly oiled wok/skillet (medium/high). Stir fry chicken until no longer pink. Prepare the rice while stir frying the chicken.
• Add vegetables to chicken in wok/skillet and stir fry for approximately 3 minutes (too long and the vegetables will become soggy). When done, you can place a serving of rice on plate with stir fry on top, then add Satay or Thai Peanut sauce to the top. If you prefer, you can also combine just the vegetables and sauce. This is my variation on my favorite dish at my favorite Thai establishment.
