Spicy Pad See Ew

Same Thai restaurant flavor we all love but with a little kick!

Pad See Ew is probably the most popular Thai noodle dish next to Pad Thai, and for good reason. This is the most flavorful, chewy bowl of noodles, & it’s surprisingly very easy to make. Pad See Ew means “stir fried soy sauce noodles” in Thai, & it’s one of my all-time favorite comfort meals. However, restaurants never seem to add enough kick to it, so today I bring to you my Spicy Pad See Ew—same restaurant flavor we all know & love but with a little kick to make it the best you’ve ever had. You’ve got to make this for your friends & family…they’ll be floored, and it will be gone in minutes—just speaking from experience. :)

My favorite part about this recipe is how authentic it is. You don’t need to fly all the way over to Thailand or even drive to a restaurant to create this masterpiece! I hope you can enjoy a cozy night in and make this delicious Spicy Pad See Ew for your friends, family, or just yourself. Forget takeout–you’ll never want to go back to it after trying this!
