Thai Stir Fry Glass Noodles

Pad Woon Sen, cooked in any multinational way, greatly shows off the bright flexibility, desirable texture, and flavors of mung bean vermicelli.

Stir-fried glass noodles with a fine mixture of selected vegetables and proteins such as shrimp will do the trick for this very special Thai-truly-related affair.

I had Pad Woon Sen for the first time in this tiny family-run Thai place in my neighborhood.

There was that very old lady chef, whose cooking smelled so good, whipping up there and then a Pad Woon Sen.

An aroma of garlic and oyster sauce that seemed so sharp and these glass noodles shimmered at work. 

Making Pad Woon Sen at home again an avenue through where I get to rewind back in time, reliving the moment with flavors and warmth.
