I’ve been wanting to make pad see ew at home for maybe years… because it’s my favorite Thai dish ever but I can never find wide enough rice noodles in the store! I found some rice noodles in the Florida Publix that said wide, but they ended up not being as wide as I’d hoped for pad see ew. I wanted to use tempeh as another protein source because I don’t use it very much and thought it would be great for this dish. Tempeh is fermented soybeans and comes in a block and you can find it next to the tofu in stores. It’s supposed to be easier to digest and a great source of protein so I marinated it, sliced it and roasted it for this meal. I added my favorite veggies and tossed in the rice noodles with a soy based sauce and it was delicious!
