Authentic Thai recipe for Stir-fried Spicy Ramen Noodles

ผัดขี้เมา (Pad Kee Mao MaMa)

Let me show you how to make Thai Drunken noodles, or Pad Kee Mao, a spicy stir-fried noodle dish. The Thai words Kee Mao (ขี้เมา) mean drunkard.

This recipe is for Pad Kee Mao Mama, a popular version that uses instant ramen-style noodles in place of the usual large rice noodles. It's really good.
