Rad Na


Rad Na (Thai: ราดหน้า, often pronounced by Thais as Lad Na, IPA: [lâːt nâː]) is a Thai-Chinese noodle dish.

It is made with stir-fried wide rice noodles; a form of meat such as chicken, beef, pork, or tofu, and/or garlic, straw mushrooms and gailan. The dish is then covered in a gravy made of stock and tapioca starch. It is seasoned with sweet soy sauce, fish sauce, sugar, and black pepper.
There are variants, including using rice vermicelli instead of the wide noodles, and using fried thin egg noodle, with the gravy poured on to soften it.

In areas where gailan can not be easily obtained, such as the United States, broccoli is often used as a substitute.
