Today I try to veganize Chrissy Teigen’s Pad Drunken Noodles recipe. I used tofurky vegan chicken strips, The Vegan Egg and mushroom vegetarian oyster sauce to see if I could get it to look and taste like the original but totally plant-based. Thai Drunk Noodles or ‘Pad Kee Mao’ get it’s name due to the fact that the spicy noodles perfectly accompany an ice cold beer, and make for a great hangover cure. I made these after a night out and it totally helped. This is a very popular dish in Thailand and in Thai restaurants in North America. Its super tasty and easy to make at home.

Chrissy writes in her book… ” The funny thing about drunken noodles is that none of the recipes I’ve ever found actually have alcohol in them — you are supposed to eat them WHILE drunk as a hangover cure (I am not opposed), but I decided they’d be good actually drunk themselves, so I added whiskey. The noodles are big, flat sponges for the sauce, and there’s broccoli for John, plus scrambled eggs and chicken, and you can (should) hit it with some really spicy sh*t. Pepper gave me major side-eye when she caught me developing this Thai-ish recipe without her permission, but she actually ate a whole bowlful. So I win.
Sambalism: I know I use a lot of Sriracha, but sometimes I use sambal oelek instead for a similar but not-the-same effect. Unlike Sriracha, which has some sweetness and tang thanks to sugar and vinegar, this is basically smashed-up chiles with some salt and garlic thrown in for good measure. It’s hot, but not death-hot, and it’s delicious.”

Yum! I love drunken noodles! It used to be my favourite when I was working in Thai restaurants as a kid!
I can confirm that your mushroom oyster sauce is vegan but not gluten free.
Please do a smitten kitchen recipe!
You just bought processed vegan substitutes for the chicken and eggs from the supermarket. There’s no veganizing attempt here
