Drunken Noodles
Drunken noodles or drunkard noodles is a Thai stir-fried noodle dish similar to ''phat si-io'' but spicier. In English texts, it is rendered as ''pad kee mao'', ''pad ki mao'', or ''pad kimao'' – from its Thai name th, ผัดขี้เมา, , , in which ''phat'' means 'to stir-fry' and ''khi mao'' means 'drunkard'. The dish is widely available in restaurants or at street vendors in Thailand but it is also highly popular in the United States, and has become ubiquitous on Thai restaurant menus throughout. Despite its name, alcohol is not one of the ingredients. Ingredients The dish originates from a spicy stir-fry dish that originally did not include noodles. The base ingredients of the aforementioned spicy stir-fry are: garlic, shallots, fresh chilies, and shrimp paste, and holy basil (for topping). Eventually, the stir-fry was converted into a noodle dish made with broad rice noodles (''kuaitiao sen yai'' in Thai), soy sauce, fish sauce, oyster sauce, garlic, me ...
