Toasting the chilies for the pad see ew recipeÂ
In a dry small pan over low heat, toast chilies for 4 minutes, or until crunchy and slightly deeper in color but not browned or blistered. Then place on a platter and set aside to cool. To make coarse cornmeal, grind in a spice mill or use a mortar and pestle.
However, it’s possible to make ground chiles up to 6 months ahead of time. Keep in a cool, dry place in an airtight container.
The Noodles
Bring a big saucepan of water to a boil if using dry rice noodles. Remove the saucepan from the heat and add the noodles, stirring to separate to prevent sticking. Allow 8–10 minutes for the noodles to cook thoroughly. Drain in a strainer and rinse until cool under cold running water. Drain thoroughly once more and set aside.
Remove the stalks from the tops and cut a 14-inch diagonal slice “thick; place aside If you’re using Chinese broccoli split the tops in half “fragments If using broccoli, chop it into two pieces “the florets Set aside, keeping stalks separate.
In a wok or a big nonstick skillet, heat the oil until it shimmers. Crack the eggs into the pan, add the garlic, and cook, turning constantly, until the eggs are almost set. Cook, stirring often until broccoli stems and chicken are cooked through, about 2 minutes.
It’s cooking time
Cook, stirring constantly, until the dark sweet soy sauce, light soy sauce, vinegar, soybean paste, 12 tsp. sugar, reserved noodles, and reserved broccoli florets have soaked up some of the sauce and softened for about 1 minute. If using standard broccoli, soak up some of the sauce and soften for about 1 minute. Cook, turning periodically, for about 1 minute, or until the bottom begins to brown and the remaining sauce is absorbed.
Cook, undisturbed, until the underside of the noodles, is browned, about 2 minutes. If used, put in the Chinese broccoli and boil until brilliant green, about 2 minutes.
Then season with white pepper and divide noodles among plates. As desired, serve with fish sauce, pickled chiles, chili powder, and additional sugar on the side.
