I watched a video on www.thaifoodtonight.com of a thai chef making this. It turned out wonderful! I haven’t tried it with the turnips, but I am sure they will be good.
Ingredients:
| 3 | tablespoon | canola oil |
| 1 | tablespoon | garlic chopped |
| 1 | tablespoon | onion (red) chopped |
| 6 | ounce | tofu, extra firm diced |
| 4 | teaspoon | turnip (pickled), turnip (pickled) chopped, optional |
| 6 | ounce | rice noodles, rice noodles soaked |
| 2 | egg | |
| 3 | tablespoon | tamarind water |
| 3 | tablespoon | Vegetarian Fish Sauce |
| 1/4 | bunch | scallion chopped 1 inch |
| to taste | red pepper flakes | |
| 1 | tablespoon | brown sugar |
| to taste | peanut (roasted) chopped roughly |
Directions:
1. Soak the noodles in warm water for about 20 minutes. They should soften but still remain uncooked.
2. To make the sauce, mix the tamarind, vegetarian fish sauce, and brown sugar in a sauce pan and simmer on low for 5 minutes.
3. Heat the oil on high and add garlic and onions.
4. Once the mixture is aromatic (2-3 minutes), add the tofu and the optional turnips. Cook for another minute.
5. Add the noodles and a little bit of water to help soften and cook the noodles. Note, the heat should remain high throughout.
6. Once the noodles soften noticeably, beat the eggs lightly and add them, stirring well, so that the eggs cook throughout.
7. Add the sauce, spring onions, peanuts, and dried red chiles. Once the spring onions have cooked to your liking, serve and eat.
