Thai Noodles With Chicken Patties (soup or Salad)

Thai Noodles With Chicken Patties

This recipe idea formed quickly when I saw the ingredients list - as I just simply love Thai food. There are two variations to making this dish - you can either make a salad or a soup (perfect for all seasons!). When trying out both versions, I realized that I liked the Chinese flat rice noodles for the salad which is oilier (sold in the chilling area in my supermarket), and pho, its Vietnamese counterpart which is sold in the dried form. The chicken patties may be used in other stir fries, or frozen after you've cooked them.

Directions[]

Chicken patties[]

  1. Mix all required ingredients in a medium bowl using your hands; cover and let marinate in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  2. Shape chicken mixture into patties (if you like, you can make chicken meatballs).
  3. Heat 1 – 2 tbsp oil in skillet over medium-high heat and cook patties, turning once, for 6 minutes or until cooked through and golden brown; set aside in a low oven to keep warm.
  4. Whisk together dressing/dipping sauce ingredients, set aside.

Salad[]

  1. Bring salted water to boil in a saucepan (enough to cover the noodles), add noodles and cook for 4 mins or until tender; drain.
  2. You may also blanch your vegetables in the boiling water for a few minutes, depending on how 'crunchy' you like your salad to be; drain.
  3. Place cooked noodles and vegetables in a large bowl, add half of the dressing; toss to coat.
  4. If desired, cut the cooked patties into thin slices (for presentation) before serving.
  5. To serve the salad, divide the salad mixture on 2 – 3 plates, top with sliced chicken patties, drizzle with remaining dressing and sprinkle with cilantro/basil and chopped cashews.

Soup[]

  1. Bring chicken stock to boil, add ginger, lemongrass, and soy sauce; add pho and cook until tender (approx 6 – 8 minutes).
  2. Add vegetables to soup to blanch them for a few minutes.
  3. To serve, divide noodles/vegetables/soup into 2 – 3 bowls and sprinkle some black pepper and a few drops of sesame oil.
  4. Top with the sliced chicken patties and garnish with basil/cilantro and cashews.
