bami-duck-soup.jpg

Thai recipe name pronunciationBami noodles are an easy to make homemade egg pasta. They you can make without a pasta machine, and because they are fresh noodles, they cook very quickly. I seasoned the duck with Thai Teriyaki power, the red seasoning powder that's available from Asian supermarkets, but you can also simply roast the duck and serve this dish with slices of roast duck.

Ingredients for Duck for 4 People
400 gms Duck Breast or Leg
2 Tablespoons Thai Teriyaki Powder
30 ml Water

Preparation for Duck
1. Mix the teriyaki with water and marinade the duck in this mix for at least 2 hours.
2. Grill the duck for 35 minutes at 170 degree Celsius until it's cooked.
3. Slice the duck, so that some of the skin and meat is in each slice.

2. Rest the dough for 5 minutes.
3. Roll it out using a rolling pin into a long thin strip about 12-14cms wide and as long as you can make it. I let the dough hang down over the kitchen table edge when I do this.

5. Slice thin slices off the end of the sausage.
6. Each slice is a rolled up noodle, you simply unroll the slices to finish making the noodle .

Chicken & Pork Noodle Soup ( Guay-Tiaw Mu Nam Sie )

Chicken-Pork-Noodle-Soup.jpg

Thai recipe name pronunciationChicken & Pork Noodle Soup, is a cheap food sold from street stalls in major Thai cities. Thai people don't cook this at home, not just because its so widely available on the street, but also because it takes a lot of preparation work and has many ingredients. Although not as convienient to make yourself, it is well worth it. It is a great 'show' food, each diner receives a generic pot of noodles with chicken and pork, and chooses the seasonings they prefer. The soup can be prepared the day before. Eat with chopsticks and a spoon. Available all across Thailand, it is very mild & not spicy.
