Shrimp Pad See Ew is a Thai stir-fried noodle dish made with wide rice noodles, shrimp, egg and dark soy sauce. Its name refers to the soy-based seasoning, and the noodles are cooked over high heat for a savory, slightly sweet, smoky flavor.
Shrimp Pad See Ew is usually mild, not a chili-hot dish. Its main flavors come from dark soy sauce and wok-frying; Thai restaurants may serve chili flakes, vinegar with chilies or other condiments on the side for extra heat.
Shrimp Pad See Ew gets its characteristic dark color and savory-sweet taste from dark soy sauce, often balanced with regular soy sauce and a little sugar. Some versions also use oyster sauce, so restaurant recipes can vary.
Shrimp Pad See Ew is traditionally made with wide, fresh rice noodles, which stay soft while picking up the sauce. If using dried wide rice noodles, soak or cook them just until pliable; overcooking makes them break apart in the wok.
Shrimp Pad See Ew gets its smoky, lightly charred flavor from cooking quickly over very high heat in a wok. At home, use the hottest burner, avoid crowding the pan and let the noodles briefly sear before tossing them.
Shrimp Pad See Ew is typically savory and soy-forward, with broad rice noodles and Chinese broccoli. Drunken noodles, or pad kee mao, usually have a much more pronounced chili and basil flavor, though ingredients and heat vary by cook.
Yes, you can make Shrimp Pad See Ew in a large, heavy skillet. Cook in batches so the pan stays hot, and avoid stirring constantly; giving the noodles brief contact with the pan helps them brown instead of steaming.
Cook the shrimp briefly at the start of Shrimp Pad See Ew, then remove it from the pan while preparing the noodles. Return it at the end just long enough to warm through; leaving shrimp in the wok throughout can make it tough.
Chinese broccoli, also called gai lan, is a classic vegetable in Shrimp Pad See Ew. Broccoli, bok choy or another sturdy green can work when it is unavailable; cut stems thinly so they cook quickly alongside the noodles.
Refrigerate leftover Shrimp Pad See Ew in a covered container and eat it within a few days. Reheat it in a skillet with a small splash of water, tossing gently until hot; repeated reheating can dry out the noodles and shrimp.

Shrimp Pad See Ew is a Thai wok-fried noodle dish made with broad rice noodles, shrimp and dark soy sauce. It is commonly cooked with greens such as Chinese broccoli and egg; the noodles soften and pick up a lightly charred, savoury coating in the hot wok.
Its flavour is gently sweet and salty, with tender noodles and springy shrimp. In Thailand it is often served as a filling meal on its own, while elsewhere it makes an easy main course with fresh vegetables or a squeeze of lime alongside. Shrimp contributes protein, but the noodles make carbohydrates a prominent part of the dish. For a lighter plate, add extra greens and go easy on the sauce.
