Last 2 week ago,we celebrated my Birthday at Thai's restaurant called thai house longisland in Smithtown,Long Island.Elliot found this restaurant "googling"and said it's rated by Zagats.Elliot doesn't eat spicy food and not a fan of asian cusine.Well,since it's my Birthday,he have to humor me to eat Thai's food.While he flipping thorough the menu,he decide to order Yum Woon Sen appetizer.But he have no idea what is in that dish!!.I told him it's quite spicy and not that kind of salad he thought like in American meal.I glanced at the price and it's cost $8.95 for a plate of Yum Woon Sen!!.At last, he ask me to order his dinner for him since he have no idea at all about Thai's food.I told him ,I will make him Yum Woon Sen at home once I have the chance to get all the ingredients.Here is goes...
I make chicken and shrimp mixed Yum Woon Sen.I eat this dish once in Elmhurst,Queens and I love the powerful fragrant of lime,shrimp sauce ,Thai's bird chili and cilantro in it.
Elliot eat some,said it's not bad.I guess his not bad refer to not spicy.He didn't bite the spicy chili yet.Anyway,he like the fragrant except cilantro.He dislike cilantro.Ingredients:
1 Teaspoon vegetable oil (nam man)
1/2 lb ground chicken (gai sub)
4 tablespoons lime juice (nam ma now)
3 tablespoons fish sauce (nam pla)
1 tablespoon sugar (nam tarn)
4 thai chili peppers (prik kee noo), finely chopped
1/2 Medium white onion (haum yai), sliced thin
1/2 Cup chopped cilantro (puk she)
1/4 Cup chopped green onion (ton haum)
Directions:
1. Heat vegetable oil and cook ground pork or chicken, set aside.
2. Cook bean thread noodles in boiling water for 2-3 minutes, set aside.
3. In a small bowl, mix lime juice, fish sauce, sugar and Thai chili pepper together.4. In a medium bowl, add bean thread noodles, cooked ground chicken ,white onion, cilantro and green onion. Pour the mixture juice over and mix well together. Serve as appetizer
