Chef Andy Ricker of Pok Pok in Portland, Oregon stops by the MUNCHIES Test Kitchen to show us how to make dressed-up instant ramen noodles with pork and cabbage. A favorite among college students in Thailand, this dish uses freshly pickled chili peppers, fish sauce, marinated pork loin, cabbage, Chinese mustard, bean sprouts, and carrots, but you can really use any veggies leftover in your fridge.

@Nospam Spamisham You are very wrong. Humans are the opposite of carnivores. We are primarily herbivores. The reason we get diabetes is eating too much, and the excess consumption of animal products. Yes, carbs are not good for you, and can spike your blood sugar. BUT animal products cause insulin resistance which prevents the sugars from entering the cells. Carbs spike the blood sugar, animal products prevent blood sugar from entering the cell. Not spiking your blood sugar with cheap carbs is a good idea, but avoiding animal products will make your body more able to handle an increase in blood sugar. That's why if you go to any diabetes organization website they will tell you to reduce saturated fats from animal products as much as possible. Good luck my friend

Don't have any respect for Andy. He stole thai recipes, food, tricked locals then came back to the states and became famous for his thieving ways. Literally took someone else's recipes and got famous for them while taking all the credit and taking all the money. That is the white colonial footprint. Bomb the thais, steal their secrets and ideas and then claim it as their own and profit off of it. What's the difference than that and going to South America, taking the natives, acting like their friends, then robbing them for their gold and making them work the mines and coming back to the British empire and living rich after murder and plunder.

@@JH-dl6vu Do us South East Asians a favour, and stop victimising and speaking for us. We're not helpless nor gullible, and Andy here has clearly made an effort to learn and respect each ingredient and the cultural significance of the dish. Sharing our culture in other countries is not a crime, especially when Andy is quite obviously not pretending to be Thai. If anything having someone put some care and effort to recreating a dish that homesick Thais would enjoy is a huge plus. People like you on the other hand, clearly have no respect for us, or understanding of Thai or SEA colonial history (Surprise! Thailand was NEVER colonised, let alone "bombed" by Europeans or other Western powers). So stop pretending that you actually give a shit and shut the fuck up.

One thing that I found really interesting living overseas - about 1.5 years in Thailand, close to a year in Malaysia, and about 12 years in Indonesia - is how little of their neighbors’ cultures the people of that region really know. In this case, you don’t get good Indonesian food in Thailand and you don’t get good Thai food in Indonesia. We in the West seem to have a tendency of lumping a lot of these countries together, maybe the same way and American thinks of the southern states or the Pacific Northwest. In reality, Southeast Asian countries are very different from one another. Their food is a bold way of reflecting this (along with their languages and religions, etc). And yet it still struck me as fascinating. In the case of Thailand and Indonesia, you have these two massive cultural powerhouses, each with really long and storied histories (which from time to overlapped one another - Srivijaya Empire for example), and each with really celebrated cuisines. Granted, Thailand’s cuisine has enjoyed a much farther reach globally than Indonesia’s, but they are both uniquely delicious. And yet there is almost no overlap in the finished product (also Thais can’t speak a word of Indonesian or vice versa, know anything about each other’s histories common or not, and so on). Is there prik nam pla (the spicy fish sauce he made) anywhere in Indonesia? No. Is there sambal in Thailand? Not that I know of or at least nothing like in Indonesia. Indonesians can fry the hell out of noodles, but can you find a restaurant in the country that can even make a decent pad tai? Good luck. Can you find a good beef rendang or nangka (jackfruit) curry in Thailand? Nope. So I guess my real point is does this guy, in his hugely vast experience dealing with Thai dishes, know much of anything when it comes to the food of their southern archipelagic neighbors’?

Looks like the Wüsthof Classic Hollow-Edge 5" Nakiri knife. They have 11 scallops on the blade, and Andy's does too.

Wow, I have been making something very similar to this dish for a long time as a short-cut version of chowmein, but with chicken, and Top Ramen or Maggi noodles. Had no idea it's actually a thing. It's delicious BTW. No wonder the students love it.

Nakiri (japanese vegetable knife). - Great when you're doing a lot of veg prep as it allows you to get a lot on the board before dumping it without stabbing product. For typical home users; probably not so great.
