What is Pad See Ew?
Pad See Ew, also spelled Pad Siew or Phat Si Io, is a popular Thai stir-fried noodle dish. The name “Pad See Ew” translates to “stir-fried soy sauce” in Thai. The dish typically consists of wide rice noodles that are stir-fried with a combination of meat (such as beef, chicken, or pork), Chinese broccoli (also known as gai lan or kai-lan), garlic, and egg. The noodles are coated in a flavorful sauce that includes ingredients like soy sauce, oyster sauce, and fish sauce, giving the dish a savory and slightly sweet taste.
